     "Be a Hero" is the tenth title in the New Earth: Christian Resources for the Outdoors series.  This curriculum is developed by New Earth Publishers, an ecumenical publishing parthership, in cooperation with the Committee on Outdoor Ministry of the National Council of the Churches of Christ.  Governing bodies that own and operate more than one campsite must buy one copy of the curriculum for each campsite.  Copies of the print resource and the CD-ROM may be made for use within each campsite.

     To "Be a Hero" for God means recognizing a need, realizing that something can be done to address that need, and taking the risk to act.  Each day campers will hear a story of a biblical hero who followed God in a brave and amazing way.  God's heroes act in ways big and small as they welcome, befirend, and include others, as they give, rejoice, and share teh good news.  Campers will learn that they can live like Jesus in simple ways, with everyday things as ordinary people.  Campers will leave camp ready to use their courage and faith to "Be a Hero" for God.
