Ministry Summer Camp
Registration for our Second ever Middle School Ministry Summer Camp is officially open!! This event (taking place June 11-14 at Lutherdale Bible Camp in Elkhorn, Wisconsin) is offered to all of our current 6th-8th grade students and will be 4 days and 3 nights of tons of summer camp fun (including water and boating activities and an awesome ropes course) as well as opportunities to grow in faith. We are partnering with other parishes from the Diocese of Rockford in order to put on this week of Summer Camp and will be bringing out speakers and musicians, not to mention some of our high school students, who will be formed and trained, as our Summer Camp Counselors! Forms can be found HERE or picked up in the parish office! Spaces are limited so don’t wait to register your student today!
Registration for our Annual WNTR WKND Retreat is now Officially open for all High School Students. All High School students are invited to retreat from the pressures of our culture and spend a weekend with us to encounter the life-changing love of God. We pull out all the stops to try to make this the best weekend of the year! Be sure to save the dates, Feb 15-17; and if you register before Dec 9th you receive the "early-bird registration fee" ($25 cheaper than if you wait till next semester).
If you want a peek into what the weekend is like check out the video from last years WNTR WKND. Don't wait to sign up; download the registration form here.
