Be Doers of the Word, and Not Hearers Only

More info below
The Corpus Christi New Year’s camp will be held again 30.12.2025-2.1.2026 in Finland in Kiponniemi, Jyväskylä.
We will enjoy daily Lutheran services (Lauds, Compline etc.) with good hymns and prayer in Christian fellowship. The theme of the camp is Be Doers of the Word, and Not Hearers Only.
There will also be time for socializing and spending time with brothers and sisters in Christ. As in previous years, there is also an opportunity for sauna and ice swimming in the beautiful, wintery Finnish landscape.
On New Year’s Eve we will have dinner and celebration and end the year with a Compline service.
For you who want to experience the Corpus Christi fun and fellowship in addition to the summer conference – we hope to see you and that you not only have fun but also get to grow in Christ at the camp and afterwards!
Last year we arranged some relaxed and low-key program in Helsinki before and after the camp, and we also celebrated the Holy Mass on Sunday together. A WhatsApp group will be created later for information sharing where you can let others know if you plan to arrive early or stay a few days later in Helsinki. More information about the pre- and post-camp activities will follow through the WhatsApp group.
More information to come, stay tuned!
In Christ,
The planning team of the camp
