Rahiem actually goes by his last name, Gregory. He is a Physical Education major at Old Dominion University and joins us for his second summer all the way from the great state of Virginia. Gregory wanted to find a job where he could grow in his teaching skills and working with kids, and camp was the perfect place to do that. He says, “I’m passionate about connecting with the kids I work with. Especially at camp, I want to connect with them and really get them to open up and enjoy every minute. I think every kid can have fun at camp.”
In his free time, Gregory likes to go to the gym, go on walks, or play video games. One of his favorite foods is wings, and he says he could eat them every day! He’s also a bit of a history buff and likes watching historical movies.
This summer will be Gregory’s first second summer at Camp Bear Creek. He says, “I enjoy everything about camp. The staff, getting to know the campers and them getting to know me, building relationships, Grooveship. I never went to camp as a camper, and this was my first big camp experience. It is something I’ll never forget. I love it so much.” Gregory’s favorite way to connect with God is through Bible study. He loves being able to apply what he is learning to his every day life.
Gregory’s favorite Bible verse is John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
