AFFIRMATION OF FAITH & LIFESTYLE AND MORALITY STANDARDS

I recognize that Lone Prairie Camp is a Christian organization whose fundamental objective is teaching and training children and adults in the Christian faith by establishing and operating a properly supervised and operated camp and retreat centre. Because my role is an important role in carrying out that mission, I, , have read and agree to sign the LPC Affirmation of Faith and LPC Lifestyle and Morality Standards and to adhere to those Statements both during and outside of serving hours.

Statement of faith in Jesus Christ: I, , commit to maintaining in private and demonstrate in public a living, vital and personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. My relationship is solely due to the grace of God through His death and resurrection, which paid for my sin conquering death. In faith, I accepted that I was a sinner and that Christ died for that sin. In faith, I gave my life to Jesus forfeiting all rights to my own will and accepting His will for my life. I rejoice in the resurrection of my Lord and the victory that is His. Ephesians 2:8-10 “ For by grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast. For we are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.”

Your participation in LPC’s CLT program is not contingent on you being able to agree to this Affirmation of Faith & Lifestyle and Morality Standards section. If you have any questions or concerns about this section, please contact the camp office.
ETHICS AND DUTY OF LOYALTY

Lone Prairie Camp requires all of its staff to observe the highest standards of ethics and integrity. I, , have read and agree to abide by the LPC Ethics Policy. I recognize that LPC has a reputation for upholding these values, and all staff are expected to hold and observe them. Further, as staff of Lone Prairie Camp, I have a duty of loyalty to LPC. In all of my activities, I will act in the best interests of Lone Prairie Camp.
