IMPACT is a brand new camp for middle school youth looking to grow in their relationship with God and witness their faith through acts of service. Cost: $275. Location: St. Louis Parish in Waco. Contact: alyssa@ablazeyouth.org or (979) 485-9910. Link: https://ablazeyouth.org/impact During IMPACT, we will experience the love of God through prayer and the sacraments, and then live from what we have received, through works of service and charity to the community. IMPACT will provide youth entering 7th, 8th, and 9th grades with opportunities to be enriched in the faith and formed in discipleship. During IMPACT we will have moments of community building, through games, activities, and skits. Youth will receive knowledge of the Christ and His Church through studying scripture and learning about social justice efforts. Participants will encounter the Lord through times of prayer, Mass, and adoration. At IMPACT, each group will visit one work site throughout the week. Service projects will involve renovating parks, serving at local community outreach centers, and working with those in need in the city of Waco. Young people will be immersed in the richness of our Catholic faith and then be given a way to manifest that faith through service.
