Camper Experience: I have attended Alpine for about 12 years as a camper, SRT, and staff member.

Daniel Littlefield
Counselor
Personal Testimony: My brother received Christ, being told by my parents. Shortly after, I saw the change in my brother, and I also asked my parents about it. They shared the gospel with me, and I believed on Jesus Christ, who died and rose again three days later for my sins, and forgave all my sins.Galatians 2:20: “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” This verse constantly reminds me of my need to trust the Lord as I constantly dedicate my life to Him for service.

Camper Experience: I was a camper for a few years when I was very young and absolutely loved it! My counselors were so loving and intentional and I had a lot of fun memories and grew a lot in my relationship with the Lord during the times that I was at Alpine.Psalm 51:10-12: “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.”

McCaffrey Lance Herbert
Counselor
Personal Testimony: I grew up in a Christ-loving and fearing home and came to know Christ as my Savior at the age of 4; however, I rededicated my life to Christ at the age of 14 while attending a Bible camp in Andrews, North Carolina that helped me come back to the Lord after straying away.Ezra 10:4, "Arise; for this matter belongeth unto thee: we also will be with thee: be of good courage, and do it." This verse teaches me to stand up and take on the path Christ has set for me and not shy away from it.
