Theme
This year, St. John's Camp theme focuses on "Living the Peace of Christ in a Modern World." Inspired by Christ's first message to the Apostles at His Resurrection, we'll delve into the nature of peace in the Orthodox Church through daily talks and activities for all ages. Adults can participate in discussions while children enjoy age-appropriate fun.
Talks include:
A calling to peace: our thoughts determine our lives and our eternity
How is peace acquired in a post-Christian world?
Peace vs. Comfort: The Purpose of the Ascetic Life
Maintaining the Peace of Christ in the world on a daily basis.
The Peaceful Family: Peace as the foundation of the Domestic Church.
In peace let us pray to the Lord: Peace and summit of the Liturgical Life.
Nourish your body and soul with delicious meals, morning and evening services, and opportunities for reflection.
