St. John's Family Camp, dedicated to enriching the lives of Orthodox families, welcomes you to a serene natural haven, where the timeless teachings of our faith intertwine with the joy of shared experiences.
This year, we are turning our hearts toward the vital connection between the Chalice and our daily lives. Our theme, “Community Through Communion,” explores how the Eucharist strengthens our life within the Church and our love within the home. We will look at our duties to one another and how an authentic Orthodox life naturally flows into the path of salvation.
Meet Our Guest Speaker: Dr. Nicole Roccas
We are incredibly blessed to welcome Dr. Nicole Roccas as our keynote speaker. Dr. Roccas is an adjunct faculty member at the Orthodox School of Theology at Trinity College (University of Toronto) and a well-known voice through her writing and podcasts. Her unique background as a communications professional and academic allows her to bridge the gap between deep theology and the practical, often messy, realities of modern life. Whether she is discussing time, grief, or the creative spirit, Dr. Roccas brings a grounded, compassionate, and refreshingly honest perspective to the Orthodox life.
