Each summer over a dozen summer camps are organized throughout the Orthodox Church in America by dioceses, deaneries and parishes. Due to the pandemic many of these camps are offering digital camping experiences to help keep our kids connected to the Church, their faith and friends.
Youth workers across the Orthodox Church in America have been working hard to put together a wide variety of programs to fill and enrich the summer months. “We are excited to see so many opportunities being made available to our young people through the creative work of our youth workers,” said Bishop Andrei of Cleveland. “Our children are being given a great opportunity, despite the pandemic, to learn more and deepen their faith, connect with old friends, and make new ones, and most importantly strengthen their relationship with Jesus Christ.”
All digital camps are open to all youth. Attend one, attend many, and invite a friend. Happy digital camping.
