Camp Info
Our mission is to nurture the spiritual and moral development of children and youth through joyful community, prayer, and learning. One of the central aspects of our camp is to provide a prayerful and spiritually enriching environment that supports each camper's faith journey.
Faith
Faith is the foundation of everything we do at Camp Oselia and St. Basil’s Camp. Our summer camp is proudly organized by the Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy of Edmonton, a Greek Catholic Church rooted in the rich tradition of Byzantine Christianity.
Campers participate in daily prayer, experience the Holy Sacraments or Mysteries, and receive lessons in selected topics of Catholic Doctrine.
