LIT Program
At Camp Anothen, growing up doesn’t have to mean outgrowing camp—it means discovering new ways to be part of the adventure. Our Leaders in Training (LIT) program is a Christian leadership program for teens in Mansfield, Texas, where meaningful responsibilities come with encouragement, friendship, and plenty of camp fun. Whether supporting a counselor or working alongside their team, LITs have opportunities to step outside their comfort zones and discover what it means to lead by example. Through mentorship, Bible study, and hands-on experiences, we encourage teens to grow in confidence, take responsibility, and develop a heart for serving others. Rooted in Fun. Safe. Gospel., our hope is that every LIT leaves with stronger friendships, a growing faith, and the confidence to make a difference at camp and beyond.
Growing in Faith. Learning to Lead.
