Spirit Led. Court Ordered.
Synopsis

Two best friends are slapped with 120 hours of community service due in two weeks, or they're expelled. Their genius plan? Pose as counselors at a local Christian youth camp, where every sing-along, campfire devotional, and trust fall counts toward the clock.

They don't like kids. They hate camping. They've barely set foot in a church. They'd better start praying for a hedge of protection.
