Trip Leaders, we are grateful for the time and energy you have invested in knowing kids. We are looking forward to serving you at Lost Canyon this summer. We have been planning and preparing for you and your campers and cannot wait to create a space where they all feel a sense of belonging and excitement as they encounter the Gospel!
Christ’s love compels us to create a culture of Diversity, Equity and Belonging at Lost Canyon, so that we reflect the full breadth of the Kingdom of God and those we serve. A culture of belonging is a core value to ensure that Lost Canyon is a place where every person is welcomed, known, heard, respected and celebrated for the ways they uniquely reflect the image of God. This will be achieved through a posture of listening, learning, relationship, personal sacrifice and action.
We are committed to this in every effort from the planning of trips, the events at camp, the recruitment and training of our staff and volunteers, and how we serve one another. We are so excited to serve you and can't wait to spend the summer with you!
