26. Be careful of our “Christian language” that other Christians would understand but these kids might not. Some of our campers are completely devoid of Christian language or values, or they may have had an abusive experience at church, or with a believer. RFK Inc 2012

27. It would be a another form of abuse to manipulate, pressure, cajole, force or in any similar way make these children feel like they have to pray or raise their hand for a spiritual decision that they may not even understand. Additional information covered more in section V. RFK Inc 2012
