Rockville Catholic Summer Program ("RCSP") is a Catholic summer camp that encourages both counselors and campers to grow in faith and love of Christ. Our campers grow in their faith through the guidance of young, enthusiastic Catholic counselors who serve as role models in a fun and safe environment. Our counselors have the opportunity to grow in their love of Christ through daily Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, and theology classes, and by working in a community of young Catholics.
There are a lot of great summer jobs out there. If you are just looking for a summer job, please apply for one of them. If you are looking for an easy summer earning lots of money, please apply elsewhere. If you are open to spending the summer as a missionary for Christ right here in Montgomery County, during and outside of work hours, RCSP might be the place for you. We ask our counselors to be willing to give their summer to God; to be open to spending it teaching children to know and love Christ; and to have a desire to grow in their own faith and love of Christ, all while discerning the vocation to which God is calling them. Please read all of the expectations of our counselors before applying for a position. We want to assemble a team of counselors who share our philosophy.
Below are responsibilities of staff members, in order of importance. Counselors shall:
1. Keep our children safe.
2. Serve as positive Catholic role models for our children.
3. Provide sound spiritual instruction and example.
4. Be punctual, supportive and show initiative.
5. Be an example of fun and excitement.
“I am third” is a motto by which counselors shall conduct themselves. If you have hesitations about your willingness to put your personal desires on hold for the needs of the children, please do not apply. A document explaining the Professional Code of Ethics for RCSP follows for you to review and sign as part of your application.
Our appearance is important. We assume that, if hired, you will show up for work looking clean and presentable.
Please keep in mind that assignments fluctuate frequently and flexibility is a must. All work assignments are at the discretion of the Director and may change based on the needs of a particular camp.
If you find everything herein appealing, please apply. This is an amazing and exciting experience provided you are willing to open your heart to growing in relationship with Christ and willing to turn your summer over to God!
We will be in touch with you after receiving your application to let you know where we stand in the hiring process. Once applications have been reviewed, those qualified will be contacted for an interview. If you are invited to interview, you will be required to create and present a lesson plan for a class of your choosing from the 2024 schedule.
We look forward to learning more about you through this process and pray that the Holy Spirit guides us in building a great team for this summer. Thank you for your interest in working at the Rockville Catholic Summer Program.
