Take Confirmation Out of the Classroom and Away to Camp at Kuriakos!
Confirmation is about more than learning in a classroom. It’s also about building relationships, asking questions, growing in faith, and discovering what it means to be part of a community.
This weekend gives confirmands the chance to grow in faith, build friendships, and experience the joy of being together at camp.
Alongside dedicated time for Confirmation study, the weekend includes games and activities, campfires, worship, devotions, community care, good food, and plenty of time to relax and have fun.
Kuriakos staff will lead activities throughout the weekend and help create a welcoming, faith-filled environment where young people can ask questions, make connections, and discover that learning about faith can be an experience we share together.
Church leaders will also have dedicated study periods with their own confirmands, giving each congregation time to continue its own Confirmation curriculum while enjoying everything a weekend at camp has to offer.
