2022 QUO VADIS DAY CAMP
Quo Vadis is Latin for “Where are you going?” Legend tells us that St. Peter asked Jesus this question on the outskirts of Rome. And we know where Jesus went in response to His Father’s will. Quo Vadis is a camp for Catholic high school boys (from those entering ninth grade to those having just completed their senior grade year) to deepen their faith, learnt more about vocations, and better discern God’s call in their lives. It is a time of recreation, fellowship, and prayer. Priests and seminarians from around the Diocese of Providence will be present to lead conversations and offer witness talks. Activities will include prayer, daily Mass, recreation (games/sports), group discussions, witness talks, a challenge course, and more...
LOCATION
The Quo Vadis camp will take place at the Seminary of Our Lady of Providence in Providence (485 Mount Pleasant Avenue). The seminary is where young men study for the priesthood. While the seminarians normally live at the seminary during the academic year, they return home to their families during the summer months. We will have access of the seminary’s facilities and dorm rooms (beds, bedding and pillows provided), as well as the beautiful seminary grounds where outdoor activities will take place.
