Camp Sales Representative
Life Action offers many ways to use your God-given gifts to help believers everywhere move toward revival, vitality, and their mission with Jesus. We’re looking for people who have a passion for Jesus, a heart to serve, and a desire to be a part of work that matters! We have opportunities to serve remotely and at our facilities in Buchanan, MI.
For more than fifty years, Life Action has come alongside churches, families, and Christian leaders to help them move toward revival and a deeper walk with Jesus. The ministry carries out this mission through traveling teams that bring church-based revival events and training directly to congregations, and through its Buchanan, Michigan Camp, which invites churches, Christian schools, families, and individuals to experience family camps, men's and women's retreats, and other faith-strengthening events on-site. Growing Camp attendance and deepening relationships with the churches and schools that bring groups is essential to the ministry's calling to spark revival.
