Life Transformed – The Way of Love in Lent

"The journey through Lent into Easter is a journey with Jesus. We are baptized into his life, self-giving, and death; then, we rise in hope to life transformed. This Lent, communities are invited to walk with Jesus in his Way of Love and into the experience of transformed life. Together, we will reflect anew on the loving actions of God as recounted in the Easter Vigil readings. Together, we will walk through the depths of salvation history into the fullness of redemption."

The Junior High Retreat is an annual retreat designed for youth currently in 5th-8th grade.

Youth will also make connections with other youth from around The Diocese of West Missouri. 

Camp WEMO May 31st- June 6th Grades 6-12 Register Here
Camp WEMO is more than just a fun way for youth to spend a week of summer; camp is a place where we can make a positive difference in each other's lives. The activities at camp are an enrichment for the body, mind, and soul. Camp is where we can experience God, build new skills, learn and form friendships that last a lifetime. Camp should be fun because smiles, laughter, and joy bind our hearts. The deepest community can be sensed when trust and understanding carry each day forward. If our staff is successful, youth will gain not only self-esteem and self-confidence through their experience but a deeper sense of who they are as members of Christ's body. Everything we do is designed to inspire, educate and empower youth to grow in body, mind, spirit, and friendship.
