Challenge girls in Southern Louisiana and Mississippi beat the heat this summer at Challenge Inspire Camp from June 21-27th at Bocamb Farms in Covington, Louisiana. The girls spent their days kayaking, hiking, swimming, and playing fun outdoor games, while still having time to grow in their faith by spending time in prayer, gospel reflection, confession and daily mass.

In the evenings, the girls enjoyed roasting marshmallows around a bonfire, working as a team to complete an involved scavenger hunt, performing in the camp skit night, relaxing in the pool for a late night swim, and participating in a beautiful outdoor Eucharistic procession. The camp was a great success, and the girls left still singing camp songs and longing for just one more night out under the stars.
