Alpha Youth Camp 2022
Be a part of it!
Alpha Youth Camp is a week for boys and girls from 15 to 18 years and from 19 to 30 years. A dynamic and creative summer space to know and explore life, faith and meaning. All in a free and authentic way. Join us too!!!
“This is a generation that has so many questions. The more we help churches to be places of conversation and dialogue, the better chance we have at reaching the next generation in open, shame-free spaces.”
“After the experience of Alpha Youth I saw guys eager to bring their joy everywhere, as strength for the future and breath into a world of pessimism and despair… with them and for them we want to believe in the future.”
We can’t wait to try this experience!

Places assignments will be announced by July 20.
What kind of experience will it be?
