Do You Want to Make A Difference?
February 27th, 2009
Each year, an amazing, high-caliber team of young men comes together to make Quest happen. These dedicated servant leaders disciple, mentor, and care for the students that come through Quest while learning about leadership and life from older, more experienced mentors.
Do you want to make a difference in this world? We would invite you to consider applying for Quest Leadership. Serving on staff at Quest is not easy, in fact, any former Quest leader can assure you that it is one of the most difficult things you can do. It means sacrificing your time and energies, denying your self, serving others, and following Christ’s example of selfless love. However, you will be storing up treasure in heaven and experiencing the incredible reward you get when you make a difference in someone else’s life.
We are looking for young men ages 16 and up, interested in leadership, with proven character & a solid track record of leading at home, at school, or at church. Those chosen to be staff at Quest must first complete a basic leadership course at home, and then come to our campus for ten days of training and preparation before Quest begins.
If you are interested in this opportunity, head on over to our downloads page to download the application.
