Dear Camp Life Participants, We are very excited that you have decided to join us at Camp Life during the summer of 202 5 ! We expect to have the privilege of ministering to over almost 4,000 Zambian children at Camp Life this upcoming summer. Your willingness to answer the call God gave you to attend Camp Life can change the life of a child, both in their current life and for eternity. Most of this year’s children will be first-time candidates to go to school, while others will likely be unsponsored students who were previously enrolled in our schools. Your commitment to participating in Camp Life will give you the unique opportunity to get to know and provide hope to these children whom you will come to adore. Thank-you for you for choosing to actively engage in God’s great commission and ministry of reconciliation with these children in Zambia. As you prepare for this exciting week, we have created the enclosed guides designed to help equip you for every step of the way, including preparing yourself for camp, the logistics of traveling to another continent, what to expect while at Camp, and how to process your experience once you come home. I want you to feel comfortable that this Welcome Packet will serve as a source of both information and direction. As you read through its pages, I’d like to assure you that you are in good hands as we embark on our 19th summer of Camp Life.
You might be wondering, “How can I spend that much time with kids, especially from a different country?” or “How can I show God’s love to kids I have never met? or “Am I going to be comfortable in an African country?” Just remember that God is exceedingly gifted at equipping those who are willing to minister in His name. To further support you, our Family Legacy team is well-equipped and experienced to help you address these questions—if He has called you, He will equip you! 2024 was my first Camp Life experience, and I asked several of these same questions. Several months later, I have to say that Camp Life was one of my most fun experiences, and I saw God change me and many of the kids (including my own) through the two weeks I participated. We are confident that your time in Zambia will be INCREDIBLE and will leave a lasting impact on your life as well as the lives of the children in your Camp Life group. Thank you for joining us! If you have any questions, please send an email to your Missions Account Manager. Sincerely in Christ, John Hasse President and CEO of Family Legacy
