Arkansas Right to Life is hosting its first ever Arkansas Camp Joshua (ACJ), a weekend pro-life camp to train high school students to be pro-life leaders. The camp has already been successfully held in multiple states, and we are now so excited to host Arkansas’ first Camp Joshua this Summer of 2012! Camp Joshua’s goal is to train the students so that upon graduation, the students will be equipped to confidently defend their pro-life views, enact new pro-life efforts in their high school and community, as well as starting critical pro-life work on their college campuses. Arkansas Right to Life is bringing in experienced speakers to educate the students on crucial pro-life topics. Some of the sessions included are Abortion 101, Pro-Life Persuasion, Euthanasia 101, The Impact of Abortion, and more!

The cost of the camp is $80.00 (includes meals, accommodations, materials, T-Shirt and transportation to and from camp location). Ages for the camp are 14-18, students who are 2012 graduating seniors will be accepted regardless of their age. Camp Joshua will be held at the beautiful CrossHeirs Retreat Center (crossheirs.org). The deadline to apply for Camp Joshua is June 26, and all registration can be done online at the website: campjoshuaar.org. Contact Arkansas Right to Life at artl4237@att.net after this point.

ACJ is open to people of all religious denominations. Material is presented from a Christian pro-life view. All chaperones will be approved by Arkansas Right to Life. Pro-life college students will assist with the weekend, but adults will be present at all times, including Hannah Trice, Executive Assistant at Arkansas Right to Life and Rose Mimms, Executive Director of Arkansas Right to Life.
