So you are not going on an iGo trip this summer? We get it. Everyone can’t go every summer. Which leads us to an important question.

How are you spending your summer?

And when I say spending, I want you to take that word literally. You are the steward of this gift we call summer break. God has entrusted you with some time away from the routine for a couple of months. So how will you spend it? You have a chance to invest this commodity we call time, but you also have a chance to waste it. What will it be?

Please don’t misunderstand me here. Spending time with family, catching up with old friends, and sneaking in a vacation trip to a relaxing and fun location are all good things. Time spent this way can be a really good investment.

I am not asking you to skip any of the good stuff you might have planned. I am simply asking you to consider the entire investment opportunity.

Why not join us on the other side of mobilization? I’m only talking about for a weekend or maybe two. iGo Global Base Camps are fueled by volunteers. We need YOU in order to train and mobilize this year’s teams. You give us a weekend, and we will give you the opportunity to engage God’s global work through training students to make Him famous. 

That is what they call a good return on your investment.

We need volunteers in a variety of roles. There is something for everyone in iGosia:

We need iGosians to run the airport, man our customs process, provide security, and welcome all the tourists to our country.

We need people gifted in hospitality to take care of our staff and iGosians throughout the Base Camp.

We need alumni that can teach iGo curriculum in small group settings called tribes and treks.

We need production crew volunteers to help us set up and tear down the set, and maybe even do some media production.

We need greeters who can welcome families to Base Camp and pray for them as they begin their journey.

We need leaders who can help coordinate different aspects of Base Camp from merch to production to simulations.

We need YOU. 

So stop what you are doing and map out your summer. Check out our Base Camp page to see the opportunities that await you, find the weekend or weekends that work for you, and sign up.

And just in case you missed it, we also have a HUGE opportunity for former JSIs to serve this summer as Launch Crew members at the first every iGo Launch Box. Check out the info on that right here. 

I look forward to seeing you in iGosia!
