HIS WORK CAMP

HIS Work Camp has been located in numerous places across the Midwest.  It was designed for high school students and launched in the mid-80’s.

Annville, Kentucky was the first place Synod of the Heartland ventured too for the high school Work Camp.
The next year they decided to head north and were in Winnipeg, Manitoba (Canada) for the week.
From there, the Synod decided to move east and went to Tennessee.
Next on the list was Phillippi, West Virgina.  The Work Camp stayed in West Virginia over 10 years—and   it naturally accumulated the name West Virginia Work Camp.
In 2007, the work camp moved to Tennessee again.  At that time the Youth Ministry office decided to give the work camp an “official” name.  And that is how the name HIS (Hands In Service) Work Camp came about!
