SERVICES MORNING WORSHIP Every morning at 9 AM, we will have a morning worship service. This is where we ll get your day off to the right start! We ll worship together, dig into scripture, and have a lot of fun and laughs in between - all led by Crossroads Staff. EVENING WORSHIP Each evening at 7PM, we will have our time of corporate worship. Clayton King, Sharie King, and several guest speakers will be bringing the Word, and we will also be led by some incredible worship leaders. Each year, we see students saved, discipled, and called to ministry at these sessions. FAMILY TIME Immediately following the evening worship service, you and your group will have the opportunity to gather together for your own personal time. Your leaders will determine what this time will look like for your specific group.
SERVICES CONT. WEEKLY OFFERING Every year at Crossroads Summer Camp, we take up a love offering for missions. Onehundred percent of the funds recieved from this offering goes towards domestic and international outreach opportunities. Clayton challenges each student and leader to pray about giving $25, but to ultimately be obedient to what the Lord wants for each individual to give. LAST WORD Each night of the week (excluding Thursdays), there will be a time of worship, scripture reading, and testimonies that we call Last Word. This time is led by our staff and is meant to create a space for you to reflect on your day and have your last words be to the Lord. Our hope and vision for Last Word is that it will provide churches with a worship experience that they can bring home with them. It is a resource for churches on how to creatively worship together in smaller, more realistic gatherings. 2 C O R INT HIANS 5 : 7

CAMP RULES While we have no desire to be legalistic and solely patrol and enforce rules throughout camp, there are certain boundaries that we, as well as Anderson University s Campus Safety department, feel are necessary to ensure that all students have the best camp experience possible. Each group leader will be enforcing their own rules regarding cell phone use for the week. We do ask that cell phones are not used during worship services. All campers and chaperones must be in their dorms by 10:30pm each night, and lights out at 11:30pm. No alcohol, tobacco, or drugs of any kind are permitted anywhere on campus. No males in females dorms at any time and vice-versa. No exceptions. No pranks or acts of vandalism on university grounds at any time. Campers may be asked to leave camp if they participate in any activities of this nature. They will also be responsible for the cost of damages. Everyone must attend all services - they are not optional. These rules will be reiterated in more depth upon arrival at camp.
DRESS CODE Crossroads has determined a specific standard of dress for all attendees, including chaperones. We understand that Christians may have different opinions of what is modest. However, in our experience, it is best to set one standard to be above reproach to ALL groups coming. This is your advance notice so that you will be able to pack accordingly. If a staffer sees a dress code violation, they may ask that the student goes back to their dorm to change. FEM ALES 2. Skirts and dresses should be at least to the knee. 4. No clothing that reveals the stomach, bra, or back. 7. No two-piece bathing suits. (Please wear clothing over bathing suits when walking outside from the pool area. 8.

Sleeveless shirts are allowed, but ONLY during lunch and at activities. 5. No excessively tight clothing. 6. Because you will likely get wet, no white t-shirts are allowed at Color Wars.
