Welcome to intensity 2012

First, we would like to thank you for your interest in our camp. We have enjoyed much success over the past few years. However none of that success compares with the humbling reality that God somehow chooses to use things like summer camp to plant His truths into the hearts of teenagers. We are careful to give Him the glory for whatever success Intensity may bring.

We are excited about the old and new faces that will be joining us this year at Intensity. We believe that God has life changing moments in store for us at Intensity 2012. We are trusting Him to do things in the lives of teenagers that can only be explained by HIS presence. We hope that you join with us even now in praying for every life that we be touched this summer through Intensity.

Please take note of the responsibility on the churches to provide background information on ALL sponsors. You can read more about it by visiting the Heart of Texas website at www.heartoftexascamp.com. Basically, you will need to provide a recommendation by your pastor, a background check, and the completed form for participating in the training on how to notice signs of abuse with minors. The Child Abuse Awareness Training can be viewed at www.heartoftexascamp.com. If you are not able to complete the training, we will over a class on Monday after everyone has arrived.

We are looking forward to being able to minister and just hang out with students, volunteers, and ministers from all over the great state of Texas. There are few jobs in the world that are as challenging and emotionally connected as student ministry. And, amazingly, year after year, we see dozens of people come through our camp that sleep in a stinky cabin, on a bunk bed, with a 13 year old snoring above them. Despite this, they give up their time to bring teenagers to camp, simply because they love them. Thanks for what you do!

Thanks again for your interest in Intensity, please let us know if we can help you in any way. Please be sure to
register ASAP, as we are expecting to be at camp capacity for both weeks.
