The role of the Summer Staffer…

Every summer, thousands of teenagers flock to the North Carolina Baptist Assembly at Fort Caswell, a conference and retreat center located 30 miles south of Wilmington. The teens come to Caswell (as the place is affectionately called), where they discover God or a renewed relationship with Him, new friends and creation's beauty.

Before the campers arrive, Caswell becomes a training ground for both community and ministry for the college students who come to work and live here for the ten week summer season.

The North Carolina Baptist Assembly has a variety of summer ministry opportunities in several work areas. Spending a summer at Caswell is life on the beach, but it’s also engaging in true Christian servanthood and experiencing the joys and challenges of living as a community with more than 70 other staff members.

For over 50 years, students have come to Fort Caswell to work and give of themselves for a summer of missions. 74 young men and women live with one another in close-quarters and serve nearly 10,000 guests in a variety of demanding work areas. However, the staff comes away with an experience that they will never forget.
