| BASE Camp PRACTICES |
We know. Commitments can be tricky. "Is this too much?" "Will I fall short?" "Do I have what it takes?" Below are the Base Camp Practices broken down into three main areas; time for God, time for connection, and time for excellence. You're not going to doing everything perfectly. It's not going to go 100% according to plan. But we encourage you to be generous with your life during this unique time. God is never outdone in generosity. He is calling you to the heights.
TIME FOR GOD.
Daily Prayer

- In addition to Sunday Mass, you'll be encouraged to attend one daily mass (more than you would normally do).
TIME FOR CONNECTION.
