Children's Adventure Camps: For children in grades 2-7, our day camps focus on themes of justice and peace in our community and the world.

An opportunity for children and youth within the United Church of Canada to engage with their communities and the world, discovering what their passions and gifts are to make the world a better place. Children experience service and outreach projects throughout the week while discovering where God is calling them into action in their own lives. Our children's camps are in a variety of locations in

the Maritimes, Southern Ontario, Saskatchewan and Alberta. Youth Mission Programs: Youth in grade 9 to age 19 and their leaders are invited to our 8 or 11-day programs where they will live, work, worship, and break bread together as they explore themes of service, faith and community activism. During the 8 or 11 days we will explore where God is calling us into action in our lives and how we can be the change within our world.

The GO Project has helped make the Climate Motivator program happen for the past three years, and this year the program started their summer in Ottawa learning about raising our spirited voices for climate action!

This week was filled with MP meetings (Leah Gazan, Elizabeth May, Rob Oliphant, Shannon Miedema). Meetings with Senator Tony Ince, and the Indigenous Learning Centre at St Pauls University. Workshops with Rev. Jessica Hetherington, Kairos, CBC reporter David Thurton, Exec Minister Eric Hebert-Daly, and attending committee meetings and question period. What a full week of work, walking, transit, and some fun! 🌿🌸☀️

Thanks to all of our young leaders across the country and communities of faith hosting them.

What a day on April 18! Alana Martin and Shawn Redden along with ten folks from across Shining Waters Region gathered to dream, imagine, and reimagine intergenerational ministry together. There was deep conversation, shared wisdom, and so much hope for what’s possible as we support children, youth, and young adults in our Communities of Faith.

Everyone who brought their voices, energy, and vision to the table. Excited for what this will help shape in Shining Waters Regional Council!

So much gratitude to St Pauls United for hosting this group of 26 youth and leaders! 💒❤️
