Churches & Teams

We offer short-term opportunities for high school, college, adult, family and church teams to serve on the Camp Team and connect with our Young Life staff and leaders around Central and Eastern Europe.

Being a part of work crew & summer staff during a week at camp will be a relationship-building experience for church youth groups or adult groups, families with teens, YL Campaigner groups and more. You will have the opportunity to teach English and other workshops, organize and run events behind-the-scenes, and get to know other international volunteers from around the region. Regular prayer, worship and small groups to develop your faith, in addition to classic Young Life ​ fun and adventure, will be included all week long.

Our team handles accounting, communication, fundraising coaching, travel logistics and calendar management for all of the service opportunities.
