Youth Interfaith Service Day Camps
Our Interfaith Service Day Camp is an exploration of the world of interfaith leadership through visiting sacred sites and hands on service projects at area nonprofits. Students will build friendships while working with a variety of service organizations doing incredible work in our community. It is an excellent opportunity to engage with peers and neighbors of a variety of cultures, traditions, and world views.
In 2023, camp runs from June 12th-16th from 9am-3pm. This camp explores interfaith and cross-cultural equity and is ideal for middle and high schoolers. For more information or to register, go to www.gvsu.edu/interfaith/camp.
