Leadership In Training (LIT)

(Please note: For the LIT Program applications will be reviewed and then applicants will be informed if they have been successful.)

The L.I.T. Program at Kawkawa is an exciting and intense two-week program centered upon the spiritual, character, and moral development of the individual. The first week will include learning about what makes and defines a leader; how to create and lead a devotional, personal development skills, how to effectively lead games and activities and several other seminars crucial to being a well-trained leader. The second week will be centered around putting into practice many of the tools learned in the first week. L.I.T. students will shadow a lead counselor for the week and assist in the daily program of Kawkawa. Between all the training, there will be scheduled times for waterfront activities, skills training (archery/riflery), group development activities and campfires. Limited to 12 students.

We asked some of our LIT Graduates if they would recommend it to others.  This is what they said:

“I would recommend it to anyone who wants to grow in their faith or doubts God or even questions if He means anything at all. COME TO LIT. You won’t regret it!”

“The LIT program would be the best thing to offer to everyone. It was one of the best times in my life and the best decision of my life.”
