Lenten Almsgiving
Each Lent, we encourage students to practice Almsgiving. Please talk to your kids about things they can do around the house to help Legendary Lodge. This year, their donations will go to support Legendary Lodge so that children in the Diocese of Helena, Montana, can grow in their relationship with Jesus. Yesterday, we sent home an envelope and a flyer with all the information about the Almsgiving Project with your child. Please encourage them to contribute their donations earned from helping around the house. They can return the envelope to the main office before Easter Break.
In partnership with Catholic Extension, St. Paul of the Cross is helping Legendary Lodge in the Diocese of Helena, Montana, grow. Your efforts will ensure that many more generations of Catholic campers can come to know Christ at the summer camp at Legendary Lodge.
Legendary Lodge offers a robust youth ministry program that is "connecting the dots" between small, rural faith communities and the universal Church. Locals often refer to Legendary Lodge as "the jewel of the diocese."
The beautiful campground is located on a pristine river valley nestled between Montana mountains. Nearly 900 children travel to the campsite for a unique Catholic experience each summer. The mission of Legendary Lodge has remained constant - to guide and accompany young disciples as they encounter Christ in prayer, sacrament, community, and the beauty of God's creation. The camp focuses on faith formation and provides a week of prayer, fellowship, adventure, and joy. These cherished experiences persist as building blocks of faith, service, and generosity that last long into adulthood.
All camps are staffed by outstanding Catholic young adults who express their faith and personally model examples of knowing and serving Christ for the campers. A time-honored tradition at Legendary Lodge is that a camp counselor tells an interesting story or a testimony about their personal faith each night. Based on the impactful camp experience, parishes see their youth continue church involvement year-round.
The dream at Legendary Lodge has always been to expand the camp to increase the number of campers they can accept each summer. You can help make that dream come true for Legendary Lodge! Let's help more Legendary Lodge campers grow in their faith!
Reminder about Shorts
