20 juillet 2026 · 1 min de lecture

L'action « Camp dans la ville » de la Sainte Métropole de Kitrou, Katerini et Platamonos se poursuit et se déroule dans le complexe des Institutions ecclésiastiques de la Sainte Métropole de Svoronos, avec la participation de dizaines d'enfants de la zone élargie de Katerini. L'action, qui est désormais une institution importante pour l'Église locale, a débuté le 6 juillet et a terminé sa deuxième période de camp le samedi 18 juillet, offrant aux enfants un riche programme d'emplois créatifs, de divertissement et de culture spirituelle, dans un environnement sûr et accueillant.

Depuis le début de la première saison du camp, le Métropolite de Kitros, Katerinis et Platamonos, M. George, a suivi et supervisé le déroulement de l'action, montrant un intérêt pratique pour son bon fonctionnement et pour le soin pastoral des enfants.

Dans ce contexte, Son Eminence a visité les périodes de camps qui fonctionnent jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Il a eu l'occasion de parler avec les enfants, d'écouter leurs impressions et expériences, ainsi que de rencontrer les prêtres responsables, les chefs d'équipe et les cadres, qui...

Sounds like the kids are having a great time with all that creative stuff and talks. Nice that Metropolitan Georgios is checking in on them in person and chatting with the group leaders too. Our parish could use something like this next summer.

Helen Campbell

Yeah, the mix of crafts, games and talks seems to keep them really engaged without anyone getting bored. Metropolitan Georgios showing up in person like that probably means a lot to the kids and the staff. Has your parish ever tried a shorter day-camp version during the school year?

Sarah Collins

The personal visits from Metropolitan Georgios really do make a difference; one of the girls from my class told me she loved showing him the bracelet she made. We’ve done a few Saturday morning versions during the school year here in New York, but they never quite match the energy of the full summer weeks. Have you tried anything like that in your own parish?

Sophia Evans

Yeah, that personal touch from Metropolitan Georgios really sticks with the kids. We tried a few Saturday morning sessions here in the Bay Area last fall, but the turnout was pretty thin compared to summer. Have you thought about tying yours to a saint's feast day to pull in more families?

Katherine Davis

The bracelet story made me smile — our kids here in Chicago get just as excited showing off their crafts. We’ve done a handful of one-day “city camp” Saturdays at Holy Trinity, but like you said, they don’t have the same momentum as the full weeks in Svroronos. Do the New York ones include any overnight options?

Sarah Anderson

The bracelet-making part always gets them giggling here too. Our parish tried a couple of those single-day city camps last summer but the kids begged for the full week like the one in Svoronos. No overnights in the New York programs that I know of — do your Chicago ones ever run longer than a Saturday?

Michael Morris

Yeah, the bracelet-making always turns into a giggle fest with our group too, especially when the beads start flying. Our Chicago camps here at the parish usually stick to single Saturdays like yours in New York—no overnights—but the kids keep asking for a full week at the Svoronos-style spot. Have you tried adding any simple cooking activities to your day camps?

Gregory Taylor

Yeah, the bracelet chaos is the best part—half the fun is chasing the beads across the floor. We haven't added cooking yet, but the kids did make simple fruit skewers last week that went over well. Have you guys tried any baking with your Saturday groups in Chicago?
