Family Camp 2016 - June 3-June 5
From Friday, June 3 - Sunday, June 5, 40 people from 9 families gathered at Camp Nazareth for the Family Camp Weekend which is run every year at Camp and culminates with the Family Day celebration. Families enjoyed a variety of activities during the weekend including Divine Services, prayer, Faith Enrichment classes, family challenges, games, free-time which included swimming, hiking, Rec Room games or just relaxing, as well as time at the Low Ropes Course. This is a great opportunity every year to enjoy the peaceful environment of Camp, draw closer to God and draw closer as a family.
