Summer Staff

June 9 - September 1, 2025

Make your summer a summer of significance.

Looking for a summer job at the shore? Summer Staff at Harvey Cedars is more than that—it’s also a time to serve, make lifelong friends, and grow closer to Jesus Christ.

Each summer, dozens of teenagers and college-age young adults come to serve at Harvey Cedars and experience lasting personal and spiritual growth.

God has done great things with our staff: many have gone on to attend Christian colleges, become pastors, and serve in missions.
