Beloved Camp Parent/Guardian,

Camp Three Holy Youths is pleased to announce the updated 2023 Summer Camp Dates.

Camp THY will be having in person camp in accordance with the American Camping Association Standards (ACA). Camp Three Holy Youths will be meeting at Camp St. Sava in Jackson between Monday, June 19th – Saturday, June 24th.

Our mission still remains the same. To provide growth in a Christian Lifestyle through Fellowship, Spirituality, & Worship. We will continue to begin & end our days with Prayers together.

Camper Registration is below.

My dearly beloved, the reason we are able to keep camper costs so low is due to the generous donations of members of St. Nicholas Church, its parishioners, and other churches. We understand the difficulties and financial strains that this pandemic has on all of us, and ask that you take this into consideration when making a donation.

You are in our constant prayers for health and safety.

Thank you, and please read the following information closely.

-Subdeacon Ilyan Baalbaki Camp Director.
