We are thrilled that you are interested in being a part of Boot Camp, Student Leadership.
We believe Boot Camp will help you become the leader God wants you to be, and has the
potential to change your life! If you are interested in the challenge, please complete the following
application and return to Sheryl W.
INFORMATION:
WHAT IS BOOT CAMP?
BOOT CAMP IS COMMITTED TO THE FOLLOWING:



Building a community of students who desire to grow deeper through biblical
leadership skills.
Developing servant-leaders with an “others first” and “quiet leadership” mentality.
Helping students develop their influence in the world in which they live and in the
people they come in contact with. Leadership is influence and we want to see
students bring impact and influence everywhere they go.
HOW WILL BOOT CAMP DEVELOP SERVANT-LEADERS?
BOOT CAMP is committed to creating an atmosphere that offers challenging and fun
opportunities for students to explore leadership within our church. We are excited to
incorporate the following in our development of servant-leaders:
1. Developing their ability to make decisions and keep commitments.
2. Building confidence and self-esteem sufficient to enable them to face a society that
focuses on “tearing” them down.
3. Teaching them they all have special God-given gifts that the Lord will use to build His
kingdom.
4. Providing opportunities for critical thinking and leadership reflection.
5. Engaging atmosphere.
WILL THIS INVOLVE A HUGE TIME COMMITMENT?
We know you are already stretched in many different directions. Sports, school, friends,
family, church, and the community all take your time and attention. We totally recognize this!
That is why we have done all we can to make the time commitment minimal for BOOT
CAMP. Here is what we ask of you:
 Attend no less than 75 % of classes
 Active participation in program
 Exercise and continue to develop personal leadership skills
