Life Teen Summer Camp Aotearoa is back in 2022! For the last six years Summer Camp has been held in Ōtaki and we have welcomed hundreds of teens and young adults to a home away from home. Now we’re moving to the Mighty Waikato. Life Teen Summer Camp Aotearoa 2022 will be five days and four nights of adventure, mud, fun, Jesus and new friends. Come and join us at CYC Ngāruawahia.
Although we’re changing venues, our mission remains the same: ‘…to lead teens closer to Christ’. Through receiving the sacraments such as daily Mass, reconciliation and adoration, dynamic catechesis presented by a special guest speaker, regular prayer times and engaging music ministry, campers will have ample opportunities to grow in their relationship with the Lord in a supportive Catholic environment.
Our 2022 theme, ‘New Fire’, will encourage campers to take a new fire back to their parishes and communities. Drawing on the Spirit, campers will be inspired to be disciples of Christ who share the Gospel and grow the kingdom of God.
Life Teen Summer Camp Aotearoa is open to young people throughout New Zealand. Campers aged 13 to 18, at 1 January 2002, can register as part of their parish. The roles of Summer Missionaries (awesome summer camp helpers) are open to those 18 or older. Registrations for camp and applications for Summer Missions are now open. Head to www.lifeteen.nz for information, FAQs and to register or apply.
We invite you to pray for the success of Summer Camp. For more details, please contact info@lifeteen.nz
