|    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
  • You're asked to spend 20 minutes a day in prayer using Sacred Scripture (daily passages provided)
Nightly Examen/Journaling 
  • You'll be provided with a how-to examination of your day and journaling
Frequent Confession
  • We're encouraging you to go to the Sacrament of Reconciliation once a month. 
​​More Mass
  • In addition to Sunday Mass, you'll be encouraged to attend one daily mass (more than you would normally do).

TIME FOR CONNECTION.
Weekly Climbing Group (In-Person and/or Virtual)
  • Each participant will be given a group of 2-3 other young adults to meet with weekly (in-person or virtual) for accountability and building friendship. You are able to request particular individuals to be in an accountability group with when you sign up. These climbing groups are of the same gender and similar age.
Weekly Formation Sessions (Virtual)

Monthly Formation Sessions (In-Person, Optional)

Do small things with great love.
  • Wake up, say a quick prayer, make your bed
  • Have one home cooked meal per day
  • Wash every dirty dish right away - no dish left behind! ​
