About this service

OWL Youth Camps are joint ventures between St. Johns Mission, Good Neighbours and St. Mary of Egypt Refuge. They are not a church camp, as traditionally understood. Children come from the city as well as from surrounding rural area.The Youth Camps are an integral part of the work of the Mission. The camp includes learning how to canoe and survive in the wilderness. The sheep,goats and donkey and chickens are all part of the camp and the children learn to respect animals not as pets but as helpers in creation.l Arts ,drama and theatre play a big part of the OWL camp experience. Included is the daily prayer in the forest chapel. Meals are prepared from local produce that we grow ourselves and are mostly cooked over an open fire. Subsides are available so that no child who wants to come to camp is turned away.
