St. Felix Faith Formation

St. Felix Parish and School is looking to see if there is any interest in any students wanting to attend Camp Summit this summer.

Camp Summit is a 4-day, 3-night summer camp for middle school youth entering grades 6-8. Camp Summit is a Catholic camp offering youth an opportunity to deepen their faith, try new things, and meet new friends! Camp Summit is a ministry of the Diocese of Winona-Rochester, Minnesota.

Camp Summit is hosted at Eagle Bluff Environmental Learning Center along the Root River and bluffs of Lanesboro, MN.

The mission of Camp Summit is rooted in Jesus Christ as the Source and Summit of our Catholic Faith. With discipleship at the core of what we do, Camp Summit strives to empower the youth of the Diocese of Winona-Rochester to grow deeper in their faiths while building stronger relationships within their parishes, diocese community, and beyond.

The camp is either offered July 22 - July 25 or July 29 - August 1.

If you are interested or know of a family that is interested, please contact Mr. Sonnek at [email protected] or 651-565-4446.
