“Stories Under the Stars” at the Shrine
This year at Catholic Kids and Youth Camps we are going to investigate the
stories of the Bible. We will explore how the Bible can be a guide to help us
live today. In the Bible there are countless stories of overcoming obstacles,
growing in faith, and witnessing God’s mighty power. Through the telling of
these stories, we will learn how to have Faith, Hope, Heart, and Confidence
in ourselves and in our church.
