Campers at Camp Saint Paul in Connecticut enjoyed spending time with Archbishop Elpidophoros of America—including challenging himself to a friendly game of Carpet Ball.
Archbishop Elpidophoros remarked how he too attended summer camp as a youngster. Camp helped him grow closer to God—even inspiring him to enter the priesthood.
On his official Twitter account, the Archbishop remarked, “Camp nurtures our youth’s relationship with Christ, builds bonds of faith, and helps youth experience God’s creation”.
My visit to @campsaintpaul today reminded me of my youth. I too attended summer camp. Camp helped me grow closer to God and inspired me to enter the priesthood. Camp nurtures our youth’s relationship with Christ, builds bonds of faith, and helps youth experience God’s creation.
