Our Lady of Lourdes

Every year at our summer WorkCamp, hundreds of teens from our Diocese encounter Christ through a week of service, faith, and fellowship. More than 200 service projects are completed and hundreds of friendships initiated. But none of this is possible without the heart of the week: Jesus Christ.

Through His True Presence in the gift of the Holy Eucharist, we remember his great love for us. Through that love and mercy, we are cleansed of all sin in the Sacrament of Confession. Through relationship with Him, we find our joy and lead others to the truth. Through Him, we can entrust any burdens and trials weighing us down.

Listen to what other words of encouragement Bishop Burbidge had for those present at WorkCamp 2023.
