Family Mission Camp
“we will only be able to fulfill our mission for the world and the Church of the new shore if we manage to renew from within the cell of human society, the family…”
Fr. Kentenich, June 1966
What is family mission camp?
- Is an opportunity for Catholic families to deepen their faith and
