About The Position

Young Life camps share a common purpose: creating an environment where Young Life staff bring Christ to life by creatively presenting the complete gospel of Jesus Christ. Speaking clearly from the Scriptures, camp speakers introduce kids to the person of Christ, the nature of humanity, the work of Christ on the cross, the hope of the resurrection and the opportunity for reconciliation with God. Young Life requires all employees to sign a Statement of Faith. We recommend you read this statement before applying for any position. This role lives in, and is responsible for all aspects of typical food production: cleaning, fixing and troubleshooting equipment, prep work, shift leadership, cooking meals and other tasks normal to a food service environment. This consumes 95% of time and seasonally will require 100% of available hours. Crooked Creek Ranch is located in Colorado where you’ll enjoy Rocky Mountain living near the resort town of Winter Park. The community has a small-town feel with plenty of opportunity for local involvement. The Crooked Creek team is looking for high capacity and fun-seeking ministers of the gospel who are looking to serve on a camp staff. As a staff at Crooked Creek Ranch we prioritize professional, personal and spiritual development for all team members. We seek to develop a team that is shaped by the Word and is growing towards their fullest ministry potential. Young Life camps facilitate leader-centered ministry in the lives of kids and provide extraordinary environments where kids can encounter Jesus and grow in their faith. The entire Young Life camping experience is a strategy for supporting the mission, vision, values and methods of ministry that we uphold.
