Leaders In Training

The LIT (Leaders In Training) Program has two parts: a camp/training week, and up to 3 service weeks. 

Anyone interested in the service weeks must also attend the camp week, since part of the camp week includes orientation and preparation for service. You may participate in the camp week without also doing the service week(s), but priority will be given to those who commit to at least one of the service weeks.
