Teen Volunteers (TVs) help Miracle Bible Camp in many ways. TVs assist the counselors in the cabin and in activities. TVs also perform housekeeping duties, wash dishes and do other “behind the scenes” things to help camp run smoothly. Students must be 14 or older by May 1, 2026, to qualify for the Teen Volunteer Program.

The Objectives of being a TV are: 

1. To glorify God by helping kids come to know Him or to know Him better. 
2. To assist counselors and the rest of the staff in all the activities required to provide kids with a positive and uplifting camp experience. 
3. To provide a “second set of eyes” on all of what is going on to ensure a safe and enjoyable camp experience for all of the campers; this will also allow counselors brief moments away. 
4. To observe and learn the “behind the scenes” activities required to provide a safe, effective and fun camp experience. This experience will assist you in future ministry opportunities at camp, church, community or elsewhere. 

Position Information: This is a volunteer (unpaid) position, and usually is one or two weeks of the summer, arriving and leaving on the same schedule as campers.

MBC Staff Lifestyle Standards

MBC Staff is expected to follow, to the best of their ability, with the aid of the Holy Spirit, a Christian way of life including but not limited to the following:

• Love for all people demonstrated consistently. 
• Joy in their relationship with Christ and in their ministry at Miracle Bible Camp. 
• Peace rather than agitation in the face of the many difficulties associated with camp life and group living. 
• Kindness especially to those who need help and encouragement. 
• Goodness, that is, Christ-likeness. 
• Faithfulness in carrying out all responsibilities to God and to the ministry of Miracle Bible Camp. 
• Gentleness in speech and in all dealings with campers and staff. 
• Self-control in temper, tongue and body. 
• Honesty, never speaking anything but the truth. 
• Modesty in appearance, clothing and actions.

MBC Staff is expected to avoid: 

• Drugs (including alcohol and nicotine) which have not been prescribed by a physician. 
• Stealing from people or from Miracle Bible Camp. 
• Sexual immorality. 
• Critical conversation which hurts individuals or weakens the ministry of MBC. If you have a complaint, voice it to the person involved, the program director or the camp director and to no one else. 
• Dating and public displays of affection during camp. These can distract counselors and Teen Volunteers from their primary ministry and can be badly misunderstood by imaginative campers. (Counseling staff that are married are exempt from this, as tasteful display of affection can be healthy modeling.) 
• If there is a serious breach of a counselor’s responsibility in job or lifestyle and reasonable efforts have been made to resolve the problem by the program director, the camp director and the individual involved, the counselor may be relieved of his or her responsibility and asked to leave. 

Personal Appearance: 

These principles were created with considerations of individual expression, professionalism, and perspectives and comfort of guests. Staff members are expected to contribute to the fulfillment of Miracle Bible Camp’s mission by maintaining job-appropriate the following standards. 

• Proper personal hygiene, which includes routine mouthcare (e.g. toothbrushing), regular bathing, and daily use of deodorant. Hair is to be clean, groomed, and colored in natural tones (exceptions include skits and theme costuming). For men, hair longer than shoulder length is to be pulled back in a pony-tail, and facial hair in beards, mustaches, and sideburns is to be neatly trimmed. 
• Body alterations, such as cosmetics, jewelry, and tattoos may be displayed if non-excessive and in a manner that does not convey or imply messages or lifestyles that contradict camp’s mission. With the exception of earrings for females, jewelry may not be worn in any visible body piercing. 
• Uniform and appearance standards. Clothing that is regarded as inappropriate for all employees includes short shorts, words on the butt, halter or tube tops, tight or midriff-baring shirts, spaghetti straps, Goth styling, and two-piece or otherwise immodest swimwear. Undergarments (e.g. bras, boxers, underwear) are to be kept covered. Shirt graphics must not convey, imply, or promote messages or lifestyles that contradict camp’s mission. Unless involved in waterfront events or male-only recreation or work activities, men are to keep their shirts on when on the grounds. 
• Summer staff members are not to undergo major or radical body altering changes in hair coloring, hair styling, tattoos or in body piercings from the time of hire through the end of summer employment.
• The program director will be responsible in interpreting and enforcing these standards. In sensitive topic areas, when practical, the general practice will be for senior male staff to address issues with male staff or TV’s, and for female senior staff to address issues with female staff or TV’s. In matters of dispute, camp’s Board of Directors has charged the camp director with the final say in determining what is appropriate. In view of the subjectivity, individuality, and diverse cultural preferences in matters of dress and appearance, camp’s leadership is grateful for employee cooperation and support as we work together to provide the best possible experience for our guests.
