I love the wide range of people I’ve been able to meet, the community that is created at camp, and the longlasting friendships I’ve made.

What I love about most about SU is the opportunity where we can take rangatahi to amazing places across the country and create spaces we were can talk about faith and help unpack questions they might have and guide them to construct a faith that is theirs and not piggy backing their parents’ faith.

What I love about camp is that it is a period of time that you live and do life with kids. We go out and have fun together, we eat together and chat about God together. Camp opens up a relationship in which we are able to dive deeper and ask the meaningful questions on faith.

The best part is being able to detach from the rest of the world for a while, and live and breathe the simple wonders of life with like-minded people. Camps remind me of what is important in life and are a chance for personal reflection on my faith. Sharing everyone else’s life stories and journey gives me great encouragement for the future.

It was my first time leading, and I had a BLAST, it was amazing. One big thing that made it incredible was the amount of support there was from the key leadership team and also the community of tent leaders. It felt like I was a valued team member and everyone was glad that I was there.

What I love about SU camps is the proximity of campers and leaders being able to interact over an extended time, creating a Christian community.
