Meet the leaders
Anna & Peter, Gnarp
Camp Founders
Peter and Anna have been present at every camp since the start in 2008. They have an aspiration to see youths become confident in their full potential and calling through God. They will be at camp from early in the morning till late at night to coach the leaders, hang out with the campers and be part of the open church at night. They will also ensure that the kitchen delivers the best food for everyone.
Sara, Sundsvall
Drama Workshop &
Game Master
“I’m a person who’s passionate about creating a place where creativity can flow. I graduated as a drama teacher in 2024, so you could say that I’m a certified theater kid. Small cute cats and eating sweets is her kryptonite.” At Acts you’ll have the luxury of meeting her in the drama workshop every morning and in the evening competitions she will be one of the Game Masters.
Isak, Finland
Camp Pastor
“This is my first year at Acts Camp and I’m so excited to meet all of you! I love traveling around the world, sharing the Gospel, and connecting with new people which has actually led me to speaking six different languages today. In my free time, you’ll probably find me at the gym or playing soccer and hockey.”
Evelina, Gnarp
Translator &
Camp Assistant
“Hi, my name is Evelina. I have been part of Acts since the very beginning in 2008, first as a camper for many years and later as a leader. I love Acts because so many people, including myself, have experienced life-changing moments and made lifelong friendships through it over the years. I enjoy spending time with friends, being creative, traveling, and worshipping. I will be translating during the evenings and am part of the Acts core team”
Clara, Gnarp
Camp Assistant
“I am a diligent person who helps where I can and if I can’t I’ll do it anyway. Outside of Acts I am a preschool teacher on maternity leave. I have been part of the camp for many years, both as a camper and leader. This year I will help out behind the scenes, which means you will see me helping pretty much all throughout the camp.”

I’m so excited to see what God will do this summer!”

I know a couple languages, I enjoy active activities, I like doing all sort of sports and I prefer spending my free time sleeping 🥴 and do some reading.

Besides that I have bright memories of being a camper myself so I hope to bring that to others, it will be an interesting summer.”
Anna, Stockholm
Soccer Workshop
“I am currently a full-time student at a university based in Stockholm who has football as my main interest, both freestyle and traditional. The best combination, in my opinion, is to take the faith in Jesus to the football pitch and into my actions. Besides the time I spend with friends, church, and school, I work extra at arenas and with youths at a center. But above all, I am a child of God.”
