Camping Sundays - Worship Resources

Camping Sunday is traditionally celebrated on the fourth Sunday in April. The worship services and other ideas available for this Sunday are designed to increase visibility for the church’s outdoor/camping ministries, draw attention to local United Church camps, and help people recall their memories and experiences of church camping. This year Camping Sunday is April 23, 2023.
We invite you to visit our event page to find out more information and downable documents :)
