A One Of A Kind Teen Camp
Who Is Hebrew Roots Teens With A Mission
Hebrew Roots Teens With A Mission is an international camp for teens ages 15-19. This camp began in 2012 and was founded by Mark & Linda Roth (U.S.A.), Joel Sanchez (Costa Rica), and Cove & Bethany Cook (Panama). In 2020, HRTWAM was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This camp helps teens understand the difference between religion and true service. Campers are trained, equipped, and activated to make a meaningful impact by serving others in practical ways.
One of the primary goals of the camp is to guide teens beyond simply talking about the Scriptures and into actively living them out in their daily lives with those around them.
There is a significant need in today’s society when it comes to youth development. Unfortunately, many fellowships are effective at producing religious converts, yet it is far more difficult to find evidence of a true movement of disciples—young people who are actively shaping history and overcoming evil with good.
We firmly believe this can be changed. For that reason, we have committed our time, energy, and resources to serving as agents of transformation—helping to restore what has been lacking and investing in raising up a generation of true disciples.
This is a very unique camp that is totally different from all other teen camps. The reasons why this camp is unique are as follows: It is an international camp. The camp is mobile and not stationary. We travel to different locations doing many different projects that we use to teach, equip, and train the teens from. We don’t “baby sit” nor focus on just having fun all the time, even though we do fun things. This camp focuses on raising up leaders who can impact their families, communities, and nation for the Creator of the Universe. The teens are instructed by adults who have been walking and living the Scriptures for multiple decades. The teens also receive hands on experience and missions training from a ministry that has lived in Costa Rica for thirteen years and has worked in almost all of the Central American countries as well as Jamaica and Vietnam. The teens experience a different country, culture, and language as well as receive a totally different perspective about life. At the end of this camp, the teens acquire a clear understanding that they are called to make a difference in someone else’s life and that going to a study or a boring service isn’t all there is in living this life or walking with the Creator of the Universe. It’s about living the Scriptures, not just in front of people but living the Scriptures with others through our actions. At the end of this camp, the teens understand that their purpose and future isn’t somewhere ahead of them but inside of them that must be released daily. They receive an understanding that the vision that God has given them is exclusive and unique to them that nobody else can fulfill, and because of this understanding, competition and jealousy are eradicated amongst the teens and also in the Body of Y’shua thus enabling them to fulfill their calling and build the kingdom of God in the earth.
