| The Office of Youth Ministry is
busy with WorkCamp 2007 preparations. WorkCamp is a week-long
service program for high-school aged youth that occurs each
summer at a location within the Diocese of Arlington. It has been a vital and strong event for the past 18 years! If
you are not familiar with WorkCamp or the many blessings
that it has provided to youth programs and parishes over
the years, then please feel free to call us to get more information.
Each parish will
be allowed to invite approximately 15-20 youth. The cost
per participant
(youth and adult) will be $400.
