Hello friends! 

My name is Emily Ferrell and I am so excited to be hired in the role of Assistant Director at Camp Challenge! I am currently in my final semester of college at Mid-America Christian University. I will be graduating in May with a Bachelor’s Degree in Ministry Leadership with a Multidisciplinary degree in English. I have a passion for people and communication, and I can’t wait to use my skills to advance the Kingdom of God at Camp Challenge! 

I was a camper at Camp Challenge for twelve years, and during that time I also served as a volunteer counselor. I can confidently say that I would not be who I am today without the ministry of camp. I am honored to be able to serve at camp in a full-time role and give back to a place that has impacted me so greatly. 

A little bit about me is that I love reading, writing, and watching movies (basically anything that involves good stories and conversations)! I am a coffee enthusiast. I will drink gas station coffee, $7 lattes, and everything in between! On a typical day off you can find me in a hammock, playing games, or hanging out with friends! I love adventure, and I am so glad that God is continuing my adventure at Camp Challenge!
