Good Friday Day Camp at St. John’s, North Haven

Have your child, age 4 or older, take a one-day journey through Holy Week, learning about God’s love with stories, crafts and games. The program begins at 9 AM with a dramatic presentation, and activities will continue until 3:30 PM. Each child is asked to bring a bag lunch, and snacks will be provided. The cost of this day camp is $20.00 plus a non-perishable food item to be donated to the North Haven Food Pantry.

Middle and high school students are welcome to volunteer. Middle school students make all of our yummy snacks as kitchen helpers while older students are small group leaders helping the children with crafts and games.

Good Friday Day Camp is open to all children in the community. Since so many parents have to work that day, but schools are generally not in session, it is a wonderful way to serve the needs of families. We consider Good Friday Day Camp an opportunity to teach the faith and the theology of our Easter celebrations while also helping to feed our neighbors around the region who are hungry.

Any child who would like to attend Good Friday Day Camp is more than welcome. To register your child or for more information, contact the church office at (203) 239-0156.
