H.O.W. Discipleship Program

H.O.W.(Hunters Of the Word) Discipleship Program is a year round program designed to identify, encourage and train young boys and girls who are hungry to grow in their relationship with Christ. Campers walk side by side with other campers, counselors and staff as we challenge and grow with one another throughout the year. It is our hope that those campers who participate in the Discipleship Program will one day be Tracy's Camp Counselors and spiritual leaders in their churches, schools and communities.

Step 1.) Summer Camp

H.O.W. to LIVE and LOVE

An introduction to Tracy's Camp.

Summer camp is an awesome time full of activities and adventure where we share the wonderful news of Jesus Christ and challenge each camper to live for Him. Following summer camp, campers may apply to participate in step 2 of the Discipleship Program. Our counselors and staff review each application and make selections based on spiritual maturity and desire (hunger).

Step 2.) Discipleship Weekends (Fall, Winter, Spring)

H.O.W. to Learn

A three weekend discipleship program that builds the camper in the knowledge and teachings of Jesus through the study of God's Word.. Campers in each age group attend (1) Fall, (1) Winter, and (1) Spring weekend for a total of three weekends. Each group of 12 will remain together during the course of all three weekends building lasting relationships with each other and with Christ. The activities for these weekends can include canoe trips, camping trips, backpacking adventures, fishing, and hunting.

Step 3.) Servant Leadership (Counselors In Training C.I.T's, Counselors)

H.O.W. to Lead

Those campers age 14 and up who have completed completed step 2 of the program will be eligible to be selected as a C.I.T (counselor in training) for the next summer's camp. A 1st year C.I.T serves one week of summer camp during the younger age groups. A 2nd year C.I.T serves all of the weeks for their gender's camp.They continue in the program as a C.I.T for two years and work toward becoming a full time staff counselor during the summers at TC. It is our aim as well that after graduating high school to guide all of our counselors on a trip to "The Holy Land" of Israel to actually learn in the land where Jesus walked the earth. This trip is currently planned every two years depending on number of staff able to participate. Through H.O.W we hope to send out disciples into the world who are prepared to glorify the name of Jesus Christ in all areas of their life.
