Girls Formation

Formation for camp wojtyla’s girl programs

At Camp Wojtyla, we want our female campers to see themselves as the crown jewel of creation! Our society promotes so many lies about what it means to be a woman. Adolescent girls often fall into habits of comparison, placing their value in things like appearance, schoolwork, and social acceptance. At Camp, we encourage these girls to embrace the beautiful truth that their value actually lies in their identity as daughters of the King of the Universe! Women have the unique capacity to both dispel the lies of the world and recognize and speak the truth. Our female campers are invited to an adventurous sisterhood, embracing their “feminine genius,” as Pope Saint John Paul II called it, by using their unique sensitivity, generosity and receptivity to care for those around them.

Our all-girl programs are designed to help each camper grow in confidence, authentic sisterhood, and living out her true identity as a daughter of God! We carefully select a counselor staff of incredible college aged women to serve as role models and mentors for the week.  While every camp program is single sex, and the activities vary depending on the age of the camper, the girls will have adventures where, as a sisterhood, they conquer self doubt as they climb great heights–tackling new challenges like our highline course through the trees or summiting a 13,000 foot mountain. They learn teamwork as they compete in the all-camp Quest competition and paddle together down class 3 rapids on the Arkansas River. They will explore what it truly means to bring God into all things and live a life of prayer as they connect each adventure to the Christian life!
