Employment

We are looking for college students and young adults who love the Lord, have a desire to serve and are passionate about students. If you are chosen to work FUGE this summer, you will work on a team committed to seeing students experience this life-change.

The quality of FUGE camps is dependent on the staff recruited to serve and facilitate camp during the summer months. Primary placement for new applicants takes place in early December. Spring placements will occur only on an as-needed basis. We suggest that applicants complete the application, references, and interview prior to December 1; however, individuals may still apply and interview throughout the spring to potentially fill open staff positions due to increased registration numbers.

The heart behind FUGE is that students would experience Christ in a deeper, more intimate, life-changing way during their time at camp. Students who come to camp may not remember all the details of the program but they will likely remember the staff member who served as their Bible study leader.

If you’re looking for the most rewarding and exhausting student ministry experience of your life, we welcome your application!
