  • The Cornerstone Program kicks off in May with three months in our summer camp program, the heart (pun intended) of Heartland’s ministry. Our summer positions range from camp counselors and high ropes facilitators to kitchen staff and marketing interns, but all involve playing silly games with campers, worshipping the Lord with fellow staffers, and giving your all for Jesus. We will help you decide what position could fit you best. Visit our staff website for more info about summer, including descriptions of our many positions!
