Summerbridge Orientation

I really enjoyed my time in Ontario and I thank MCC and the program for letting me be a part of something really special. I'm honoured to have been the first person in Alberta to have been a part of this and it’s something I’ll remember forever. I made some good friends and met people who have impacted me to be better and taught me that there are so many more ways to give to the world and to your community.

PIT Crew Reflections

We asked some PIT Crew their favourites parts of camp and here is what they said:
“Lowkey just everything, I like to eat the food here, We get to sleep inside, We get peak experience, and The dance parties in the dish pit!” (PIT Crew 2026)

The Symbology of the Cross

No matter what angle you come at it; whether that suffering is for the purpose of salvation, or if it’s a radical act of Creator God’s human solidarity, our God is known for having been hurt for us and with us. It does well to encapsulate why I came to faith in my youth years, and why I choose faith every day despite much; it tells me that on my worst days, where I don’t think I am worth effort, or deserving of care or love, that the God of the cosmos came down and fully lived like I have. That cross is symbol that Jesus hurt like I hurt, and still said I was worth it.

A Confession and Creed for Bright Sunday

Forgive us, Lord, when we take ourselves too seriously,
when we don't claim the happiness that is rightfully ours
as your children,
when we forget that you will have the last laugh in this world.

Camp Commissioning Litany

In this time and in this place,

may all who come
see God’s face in creation
experience God’s love in Christ

 and radiate God’s Spirit in the world.
