Diocesan Middle School Day Camp
At Our Lady of Loures: July 15-July 19
What is a Diocesan Middle School Day Camp?
The Office for Evangelization offers a week-long day camp experience for middle school youth. The goal of the camp is to bring together middle school youth from area parishes to build community, grow in knowledge of the faith, and encounter Christ through prayer and sacrament. This high-energy camp is filled with fun games, service activities, small group discussions, time for prayer, and a trip to a water park.
Who should attend the Diocesan Middle School Day Camp?
The Middle School Day Camp is open to all youth who are rising 6th, 7th, and 8th graders (meaning they will be in that grade for the coming 2019-2020 academic year). Also, rising 11th and 12th graders, a well as just graduated seniors, are welcome to participate as camp counselors.
Where and when is the Middle School Day Camp?
July 15- July 19, 2019
Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church
8200 Woodman Road, Henrico, VA 23228
Monday-Friday: 9:00 am-4:00 pm
What is the theme?
This year's theme is "Amazing Grace." The middle school youth will come to a better understanding of the role that grace has in their lives and how it is a gift from God.
How much does it cost?
Thanks to a gift from the Diocesean Annual Appeal and an additional parish subsidy, we are able to offer this camp well below it's actual cost. The registration fee for middle school participants is $80, while camp counselors and adult chaperones may register for free. However, if the registration fee is a burden then please don't let that dissuade you! We never want a youth to turn away from an event due to finances. The parish payment form (below) has an option to request additional parish funds for those who might need it.
How do I sign up?
Complete the diocese's registration form and the parish payment form and return to Mr. Steven at the church, either by dropping off or mailing a physical copy or by returning a digital copy to [email protected]. If you are applying to be a camp counselor, please use this registration form. Registration closes on June 21 or when all the spots have been claimed.
