About Employment at Forest Springs
The core group of our long-term staff is referred to as missionary staff. We consider ourselves a "home mission" and require that our long-term, full-time staff raise their own financial support to be at Forest Springs.
However, we do not expect brand new staff to raise their own financial support when they first start at camp; instead, to help explore the possibility of whether or not camp is a “good fit” for them, we will offer a one-year salaried contract to a potential staff member, while we mutually evaluate the possibility of a long-term staff relationship.
Contract staff members commit to a one-year contract at Forest Springs, where they receive a salary, healthcare, on-site housing, and other benefits.
If interested in learning more about any of the above positions, please contact Jon Classen at [email protected] or by calling 715.436.7378.
