Meet Warm Beach’s Intern, Jessica Graves

The internship program is back in full swing at Warm Beach Camp (WBC)! We are excited to welcome Jessica Graves (left) from Ferndale as a 2023-2024 WBC intern. Jessica has been coming to WBC since she was eight and has participated in summer camps and volunteer opportunities at The Lights of Christmas.

“Years ago, my grandparents volunteered down here. And ever since I can remember, we’ve been coming down and helping with The Lights.”

Jessica was looking for a job where she could help people and make a difference while making friends. Through prayer and discussion with others, she was drawn to the Internship program at WBC.

“Warm Beach has always been like another home to me. When I come here, I feel instantly at home again.”

Jessica is enjoying the opportunity to live on campus and interact with the on-site community here, it doesn’t hurt that work is just a short walk from her house.

Interns get the opportunity to work in multiple departments to gain experience in several career options in camp ministry. So far, during her first two months in the program, Jessica has worked in Accommodations, Food Service, and The Lights of Christmas departments. She doesn’t have a favorite area yet but enjoys the opportunity to serve.

She is looking forward to meeting new people and growing closer to God during her time at WBC. And we are grateful that she is part of the Warm Beach team and excited to see how God moves in her life.

The Wheel of Fortune is a game show with unusual staying power in modern culture. However, the idea of a Wheel of Fortune goes back to ancient times. On the outer edge of the top of the wheel are things like success, wealth, health, status, and opportunity. As one moves around the outer edge of the wheel it includes things like poverty, sickness, bondage, and tragedy. Some ancient images have Christ at the center of this wheel with the following ...
