CIT Program Application

Crossroads is a youth ministry of Rockpoint Community Church, and seeks to bring the love of Christ to each camper daily through small groups, worship, games, crafts and more! The CIT Program exists to train the next generation of staff in Biblical leadership, while fostering your unique gifts and abilities through hands on experience opportunities at camp. This CIT Program is NOT just another chance to be a camper after graduating out of the camper age window.

Please note: Crossroads exists to be a summer-long, local mission trip. The staff take their job as the hands and feet of Christ very seriously, and are interested in training future counselors that demonstrate faith and trust in Jesus Christ as their savior through the CIT Program. Whether you are a new Christian or have been a Christian for many years, our CIT Directors are eager to edify your faith and relationship with Christ through this program.  

By completing this application, you are acknowledging that you are prepared to take this program seriously and demonstrate an eagerness to learn while participating in the CIT Program. You also acknowledge your responsibility to demonstrate respect towards your directors and the love of Christ towards campers. As a CIT you will need to set a good example for the campers who inevitably look up to you all summer long. By applying, you are demonstrating the intent to actively participate in the activities planned for the CIT program.
Again, this program is not a loophole to still come to camp as a regular camper after aging out. The CIT program is a leadership training program designed for those eager to learn the skills required to be an excellent leader, whether it be as a camp counselor in the future, or in other areas outside of camp. It is also not an excuse to come hangout with your friends who are on Staff this year but not participate in any CIT programming. That is untenable for our staff and will not be tolerated this year.
CIT will run in TWO SESSIONS: Session 1: June 22-July 17
Session 2: July 20-August 14
You are welcome to register for both sessions if you want to participate in the program for the whole summer. *Availability is first come, first serve. Once a session is full, we will not be able to make any exceptions to add registrations to a session.*What does this program cost?
 $500 per session. If you need financial assistance or have questions regarding this, please reach out to us by emailing crossroads@therockpoint.org
First time applicants: Please fill out thoroughly. Contact crossroads@therockpoint.org with any questions.
*Crossroads 2025 is from June 22 - August 14. Orientation is June 20 from 10am-1:30pm






Experience

Faith

This section is about your faith.
Crossroads is a ministry of Rockpoint Community Church with the goal of reaching the community of North Haledon and beyond with the gospel. In the CIT program you will learn to share your faith and learn to guide young people to faith as a future counselor. To do so, you must understand the Christian faith, and how salvation is received, and live it. (This is something we talk a lot about in our training/Leadership Lab small group as well so if you're not 100% sure how to answer yet, that is okay! We just want to see where you're at to design lessons that accommodate every level of learner!)
