Many seasonal staff are needed during the summer to operate Word of Life Camps and Conference Centers.
Through the Summer Training Corps (STC) Program more than 400
young people invest their time each summer at Word of Life to
serve and minister to the over 10,000 guests who attend Word
of Life each year.
Word of Life operates four facilities in New York's scenic Adirondack
Mountains and two facilities in sunny central Florida.
In New York we have the Inn & Conference Center for adults,
Word of Life Island for teens 14 to 18, the Ranch-Ranger Complex
for youth ages 6 to 13 and the Family Campground, which includes
cabins and RV/tent sites.
In Florida we have the Youth Camp for children and teens ages
6 to 18 and the Conference Center for adults.
This program will challenge you through Bible Study, Scripture
memory and a daily Quiet Time. There is also great fun and fellowship
through water sports, games, special events and social activities.
We have a wide variety of work areas in which you may be able
to participate.
Lifeguard, boat driver, stable hand, bookstore, office work,
food services, maintenance, nursery, housekeeping, and waitressing
are just a few of the positions available.
A weekly stipend to cover incidental expenses is paid
to each STCer. Your room and board is provided.

I have other scholarships for the Bible Institute, can I still use my STC scholarship?
STC Scholarships cannot be combined in the same school year with Reachout scholarships, but if you want to use your STC scholarship for your 1st year, you can reserve your Reachout scholarship for the 2nd year program. STC is compatible with all other scholarships.
