Tyler Kovacs- Summer 2014
Internship at Mount Hermon
Founded in 1905, Mount Hermon was the first Christian camp west of the Mississippi. We’ve always been both evangelical and interdenominational, consistently proclaiming Jesus as Lord and Savior, teaching the authoritative Word of God and serving churches and Christian ministries both here and worldwide. Mount Hermon’s origins trace to the American evangelist Dwight L. Moody, whose conference center founded in the east influenced our original program and facilities. Now over 100 years later, Mount Hermon is still a place of retreat from daily stress and rigors, a place for discovering and renewing one’s relationship with Jesus Christ. Our “high” view of the Bible as God’s authoritative Word permeates our programs, encouraging an environment where the truths of Scripture can be taught, understood and applied in daily living. Over our history, Bible teachers participating here have included many of the most highly respected preachers and teachers in the world. By God’s goodness and faithfulness, Mount Hermon has grown to be one of the largest—and acclaimed as one the finest—Christian camp and conference facilities in the world.
Mount Hermon’s mission is, “To proclaim Jesus as Lord and Savior, teach the authoritative Word of God, and serve His Church in our nation and throughout the world.” And Mount Hermon’s purpose is stated as, “Encountering Jesus-Lives Transformed.”
Intern Responsibilities
This summer my job was to model a genuine Christian lifestyle of Christian discipleship, providing for campers' safety and well-being and nurturing spiritual growth through program activities and curriculum. I lived with and lead approximately 7-8 campers each week and lead small group Bible studies. Sought out and connected campers guiding them one-step closer to Jesus through activities and curriculum and also oversaw and implemented a variety of adventure and recreation activities as assigned.
I was paid $205 per week and room and board for 11 weeks and got to participate in many adventure activities like the ropes course, zip line, surfing, and paintball for free.
I made several lasting friendships and learned a ton about the operation and implementation of a huge summer camp program.
