Opportunities
An exciting new summer ministry opportunity!
Praise the Lord with us! We have filled all of our summer essential staff positions!
However, we have room for some volunteers to help with a variety of projects! Stay for a month, a week or just a day, meet the Jon Byrnes family and join in with them on everything from maintenance projects to remodeling three modular buildings into staff homes!
We have a team of 14 college and career age folks and six high school staff. This summer we will serve two camps that each have a long history of impactful ministry as they are now entering a new phase of growth and development. Camp Grace near Wheatland, WY was founded in 1951 and joined Ironwood’s Family of Camps in 2013 and Camp Assurance near Georgetown, IL was founded in 1949 and joined Ironwood’s Family of Camps in 2023. Our team will begin at Ironwood camp in California for training, travel to Camp Grace for three weeks and then to Camp Assurance for 5 weeks!
Not all of our summer staff need an educational scholarship (for college or “next steps” educational expenses only) but all of them need a team of people praying for them!
And now you can join with us without leaving home! We are looking for folks who will partner with us in our summer ministry. Our goal with this page is:
- Enlist prayer support for our team
- Present the scholarship fund to those who may be able to partner with us financially.
The prayer list form is a simple form that allows you to request a weekly praises and prayer request update from us or a photo prayer card of our team.
The scholarship fund tab is a link to a scholarship fund donation page. You can designate your gift to go towards a specific person’s scholarship or just to the general scholarship fund for us to divide among those with needs. (If you want to help one of our staff with a personal gift to help them with expenses or just to encourage them you will need to give that directly to them rather than to the camp.)
mission teams

We are thrilled to have a team of missionary builders join us for the second half of the summer 2024. If you are interested in coming to volunteer or have a group that is looking for a way to use the temporal to affect the eternal the Nehemiah Corps staff would love to hear from you!
