Who can come? ExpandPort Hughes CLW caters for young people in Year 7-12. It is primarily targeted at young people from the Mid North, Light, and Yorke Peninsula and the Northern Territory, but participants from other areas are welcome to join us.
People of all backgrounds are welcome, from people who have been regularly worshipping members of a church community for many years to those who have never set foot in a church before! Members of all denominational backgrounds are very welcome and encouraged to attend and participate. Please note that camp will contain Lutheran theological teaching.
What will we do? Expand– Every day begins with breakfast followed a rev up to get you ready and raring to go for the days activities.
– Afterwards we have a time of worship and spend some time dwelling in the word as a whole camp before splitting of into small groups.
– After small group, you get to have some quiet time, where you can spend some time with God and reflect on camp.
– Then it’s time to refuel and have some lunch.
– Each day there are different activities like going to the beach, water games, sports, craft, write warm fuzzies, board games, group games and time to have fun and make new friends.
– Before you know it, its dinner time, followed by another time or worship and possibly another activity.
– Before the day ends and you go to sleep, there is a time to wind down, talk about the day and what you’re looking forward to for the next.
