Compassion Camp
Sundays in August

It’s August and we are bringing Compassion Camp to our youth! Here are the FAQ’s:

• What is Compassion Camp? A Sunday youth celebration series designed to provide some hands-on worship and activities around compassion; for each other, our world and ourselves.
• Who is Compassion Camp for? Preschoolers through 6th grade.
• Am I sending my kids away? Nope! Your living room works perfect. Compassion Camp takes place every Sunday at 10:00 am via Zoom for the next five weeks.
• What do I need to do to make it happen for my kids? This week I will be dropping off materials to the families with children in this age range. Simply follow the Zoom link sent in the Saturday SJTL email and jump on!
• Do I need to prep? Not at all! I will be running the camp worship and there will be follow up crafts/art projects that are optional.
• How is Compassion Camp formatted? Everyone will get on Zoom at 10am; the wee ones in the group will be able to hop off after 20-30 minutes and the older youth will stay on for 10-15 more minutes to delve a bit more into the material.
• What if I’m on vacation? What if my kiddo sleeps til’ noon one week? Compassion Camp is designed for fluid and flexible families. Hop on one week or all! Whatever works.
• Can my niece and nephew join in? How about my pals? Of course! Let me know and I can get them materials or I can provide the link to them if you send their info to cindy@stjamestheless.org
