The short video below includes very brief clips from Mr. Weston’s camper orientation. We want to set the right tone at the beginning! And at orientation, we work hard to do just that. Below that you’ll see some pics from Fellowship Time, one of the campers’ favorite times of day—a great time to relax, talk about how the day so far, and make some new friends.

Here are some pics from Arrival Day of this year’s LYP Teen Camp 2022. Most of what you see below is before the campers arrive—staff preps their areas of responsibility and works with their teams. Mr. Weston and his team orient the staff and discuss the spiritual principles, the camp’s rules, and the vision behind the program. Later in the day, each team of instructors gets to practice their class with a group of staff members acting as “campers.” It’s a great opportunity to try out their lesson plans in a real instructional environment, get feedback from fellow staff members, and work out any wrinkles before classes begin the next day. Everything is geared toward making sure the camp is up and running so that, when campers arrive, they are coming to a camp that is ready for them! And arrive they do, as you can see in the final pictures. More pics should be on their way soon, so be sure to check back!
We hope these very early pics from LYP Teen Camp 2022 serve as a tease for the pics yet to come! Check them out and watch the brief video below. We look forward to posting more as camp continues (probably even later today), so come back soon!

By moderately popular demand, the Living Youth Podcast is now available on Spotify! Thanks for all the encouragement! It will be a while before the backlog of old programs is fully loaded onto the platform, but going forward we hope to get each new one on Spotify. For now, we’ve just selected a few and we hope to load a few extra of the old ones each month as we load new ones. Our next target is the Apple Podcast app, but let us know if there are other platforms we should consider.
Our thanks to Mr. Jonathan McNair for helping us figure out what we needed to do, based on what they’ve learned in Living Ed by getting Mr. Frank’s up and running. We appreciate it!
The Spotify page is below for those who are interested. And, again, please feel free to share any feedback, ideas, or questions at [email protected].
P.S. It looks like our podcast about how Captain America: Civil War helps demonstrate how the world needs Jesus Christ is flagged as “Explicit”! Oops! I was all ready to blame Spotify, but the error was ours (sneaky checkbox accidentally hit). Rest assured, it’s totally not “explicit” and is fully Colossians 3:8 compliant! The incorrect label should rectify itself in 24 hours or so. And believe us, the last thing we’d want to do is have Cap say “Language!”
