About MCC
MCC provides camps three times a year with a positive atmosphere, a variety of fun activities, and an emphasis on helping young people know God and understand His will for their lives.
The camps are run for three different age groups: 9-12 years (4th-6th class), 12-15 years (1st-3rd year), and 4th year +. All of our camps are staffed by enthusiastic, dedicated, and Garda-vetted volunteers.
Days at camp include Bible teaching and discussion, games, sports, crafts, activities, outings, friends, and delicious food. You can get a glimpse of the fun on our Instagram and Facebook pages.
Our Aim
The aim of Munster Christian Camps is to provide quality camps for the youth of Munster. The purpose of these activities is to lead young people to a personal understanding of God’s plan for their lives, not only through Bible teaching and discussion, but also in other activities.
We aim to show that the Lord Jesus can be a part of every aspect of their lives. God’s Word can equip our young people to become active, helpful members of society, and it is our purpose to help them come to a living, personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ that will remain when all else fails.
