S.W.A.T. 
Servants With A Task
9th - 12th Grade

Servants With A Task is a unique program at Fir Point Bible Camp that makes it possible for High School campers to remain at camp as servants in the Junior High and Elementary School camps. Being selected for the S.W.A.T. team is a privilege and an honor. Being on the S.W.A.T. team is all about humble servant-hood and personal sacrifice.
SERVANTHOOD
 
Why do you want to be on the S.W.A.T. Team? The campers generally look up to S.W.A.T.s as being mature and having an important position. They are and they do!

Jesus told the disciples the truth: “Whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant. And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave” (Mt. 20:26-27). The path to glory is the path of selfless servant-hood. Jesus used Himself as an example: “Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many” (Mt. 20:28).

Being a S.W.A.T. team member may have its times of privilege and honor, but God has called us to be servants. Why else would we be asked to present ourselves as “a living sacrifice?” Being a servant is not a glory job … It’s hard work.
​
Being a servant does not mean that you let the campers push you around. It means sacrificing what you would rather do for what God wants you to do. Cabin leaders and S.W.A.T. Team members who humble themselves and become servants are the ones who are loved and respected the most.

Being a S.W.A.T. team member includes many unique tasks such as dining hall & dish room duty, childcare, yard work, activity director assistance and cabin leading. Each task is equally important for the success of the ministries of Fir Point Bible Camp. There is no monetary compensation for these tasks, but you will be rewarded by our heavenly Father who is gracious, kind and loving toward His servants! The experience you gain will be carried with you throughout life, is a great introduction into future ministry opportunities as you mature in your faith and humbly submit yourself to God in the role of a selfless servant.

If you are in high school and feel the Lord drawing you into a deeper and more intimate walk with Him, please take the time to pray and consider how the Lord might use you as His servant at Fir Point Bible Camp! We are looking forward to serving with you this summer!
