St. John 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 explore "The Eklesia (Church) of the Christian Home", exploring how to cultivate a vibrant spiritual life within our family walls. Imagine sharing stories, exchanging ideas, and learning practical ways to transform your home into a sanctuary of prayer and love.
Special Highlights
We are thrilled to announce that Oleg Voskresensky, an acclaimed educator, theologian, and author, will be a featured speaker at our family camp! With a rich background spanning philology, theology, and pedagogy, Oleg brings a unique perspective to exploring faith and culture. He's the co-author of significant textbooks on religious cultures, a passionate lecturer, and the host of his own engaging radio program, "Let's Talk, Discuss, Argue.". Oleg's insights into Orthodox education, New Testament history, and intercultural communication promise to spark fascinating discussions and deepen our understanding. Don't miss this incredible opportunity to learn from a truly captivating speaker!
We are delighted to announce that Fr. James Baglien will be joining us, and is eager to provide a special talk specifically tailored for our youth and young adults, offering guidance and wisdom for their spiritual journeys.
Relax and enjoy your time with comfortable cabin accommodations, all your meals and snacks provided (breakfast, lunch, and dinner!), and engaging activities designed just for kids, while adults participate in engaging talks and lectures.
We will be serving on the New Style calendar, but will make special provisions for these who want to keep the Old Calendar fast.
