What EMT is all about
EMT is designed around two phases that combine biblical teaching, spiritual formation, and practical outreach. Students can participate in Phase 1 or continue through both phases for the full EMT experience.
PHASE 1
PHASE 1 focuses on building a foundation for living and sharing the gospel. Each morning, students participate in biblical teaching, worship, prayer, and practical evangelism training.
In the afternoons, they take what they’re learning into the community through hands-on outreach. Rather than simply hearing about sharing their faith, students have opportunities to put it into practice, grow in confidence, and experience what it means to represent Jesus in everyday encounters.
PHASE 2
PHASE 2 Students are encouraged to grow in their ability to listen to the Holy Spirit and respond to His leading. Through prayer, team discernment, and intentional outreach, students learn to recognize opportunities to serve, encourage, and share the love of Jesus with others.
Each experience becomes an opportunity to reflect, learn, and grow together as students discover that following Jesus means remaining attentive and obedient to Him wherever they go.
Your EMT experience
EMT takes place at Rosedale Camp, where students stay in bunk houses alongside their groups and leaders. Throughout the week, students share meals, build friendships, and experience life in community with young people from across the DOVE USA family of churches.
REGISTRATION includes lodging, meals, transportation duirng the week, and one EMT shirt for each phase attended.
We encourage students to be fully present and engaged throughout the experience. To help create an environment with fewer distractions, phone use is limited during teaching sessions and outreach. Youth leaders remain available to communicate with parents when needed.
