The Church of the Brethren workcamp ministry closed out a successful summer season in 2013, holding 23 workcamps at a variety of sites across the nation for Brethren junior and senior high youth and adults.<\/p>\n

The ministry also has announced a theme and theme scripture for next year\u2019s workcamps, to be held in summer 2014.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s 23 workcamps included 3 new locations, and involved 363 participants including adult advisors and youth. The workcamp office reports that 35 people contributed to leadership at workcamps this summer, along with the two Brethren Volunteer Service workers who were assistant coordinators for 2013–Katie Cummings and Tricia Ziegler–and staff director Emily Tyler.<\/p>\n

Next summer\u2019s workcamps will be held on the theme, \u201cTeach With Your Life,\u201d based on the scripture theme 1 Timothy 4:11-16. Debbie Noffsinger designed the 2014 workcamp logo.<\/p>\n

New in 2014, the workcamp deposit amount will be raised to $150. Next summer will see workcamps offered for young adults, Brethren Revival Fellowship (BRF) senior highs, intergenerational groups, and junior highs. The number of senior high workcamps will be restricted because 2014 is a National Youth Conference year.<\/p>\n

Jenna Stacy has begun a term in Brethren Volunteer Service as assistant workcamp coordinator, working with Emily Tyler. Stacy is a native of Campobello, S.C., and began work at the Church of the Brethren General Offices on Aug. 20. She will attend the fall orientation Unit 303 of BVS. She is a 2013 graduate of Bridgewater (Va.) College with a bachelor\u2019s degree in religion and philosophy.<\/p>\n

More information about 2014 workcamps will be available by late September at www.brethren.org\/workcamps<\/a> .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
