Our Morning Star Camp program has been a cherished summer tradition for Catholic girls for over 40 years. However, each year, we face a waiting list of eager campers, as our space is limited. So, when parishes or co-ops request the Morning Star Camp in their communities, we strive to make it happen. Through our “Away Camps,” we bring our proven program to new states and facilities while preserving the spirit of Morning Star. Whether it’s an overnight or day camp, Morning Star Camp offers the same fantastic program, joyful spirit, and devotion to Mary.

Following this, a week of regular Morning Star Summer Camp took place for girls ages 10-14 from June 22-28. Many new campers filled the cabins, and it was exciting to see the camp spirit begin to catch on. Thanks to a dedicated team of counselors, the week flowed smoothly, and 100 new MSC girls carried their light of faith back home with them, continuing to “Follow Mary” until they regroup next year.

The second regular week of Morning Star Summer Camp occurred from July 13-19, concluding the girls’ camps at our home facility for the season. Campers filled all 120 bunks, and the schedule included catechism, art, music, and more, all infused with excitement and enthusiasm from the happy campers. Each week concludes with a Talent Night followed by a candlelight procession, which is always a touching finale as we all thank Our Lady for a wonderful week.

Thank you, Blessed Mother, for all four of the wonderful weeks of Morning Star Camp 2025! Ave Maria!

Morning Star Camp was shining in Texas again this year! Four of our Sisters brought the program to a great group of campers in the Tyler area! Catechism, crafts, singing, dancing, and plenty of laughing and fun were all part of this day camp from March 5–7. Texas was sunny, bright, and warm… and the perfect place to start the Morning Star Camps for 2024! The new camp year is off to a great start!! Follow Mary, the Morning Star, girls! We can’t wait to come back to Morning Star Texas!

While the cold weather moved in to New England, four of our Sisters finished the Morning Star Camps for 2023 in the warmer region of Louisiana! This was the fifth time the program had taken place at the lovely facility of Camp Abbey in Covington on November 8–11, 2023.

Daily Mass, catechism classes, crafts, music, games, and lots of laughing and singing were the sure signs that the camp was a success. It was a fantastic group of 70 happy campers and counselors! Special thanks to Gretchen R. and her team of volunteer moms who made Morning Star Louisiana happen once again! God bless you all! Follow Mary, the Morning Star!

Idaho Camp

Our Morning Star Camp program was shining in the North West this summer! No sooner was the school year finished when three of our Sisters were off to camp in Idaho! Saint Joan of Arc FSSP Parish sponsored the Sisters, once again, to bring the program to their young ladies. A day camp directed at the parish for young campers was followed by a full Morning Star Camp experience, for older campers, at the Ross Point facility. May God bless everyone who helped make this Morning Star Camp in Idaho possible! Enjoy view some photos in the slider below.

Washington Camp

Following our annual four weeks of camp at our facility, three of our Sisters flew out to the North West again! This time, the Morning Star program was taking place in Washington State for young ladies from Saint Joseph and North American Martyrs FSS parishes. The program took place at Sound View Camp, right on Puget Sound! It was the first time for campers and staff, and everyone had a great time! We hope to revisit our North West Morning Star Campers next year! God bless everyone who made MSC Washington possible! Enjoy photos in the slider below.

The summer months are Morning Star season for the Sisters and campers! This year, four hundred campers and fifty counselors came from across the country to enjoy the program and soak up the spirit of “To Jesus through Mary” in this unique experience! The largest Leadership Camp to date started the season off, followed by two weeks of regular Morning Star Summer Camp and a week of MSC Teen Week! Enjoy a selection of photos from all of these sessions below. What a beautiful way to spread the Faith and to spend the summer!

The Sisters would like to especially thank Melissa K. and all the moms who pitched in to make this possible and our host family Jose and Alicia E., for their gracious hospitality. May God reward you all!

Overnight Camp

The overnight camp was attended by nearly 70 girls – ages 9 through 17, at a lovely facility near the parish. The growing Morning Star Camp spirit was evident among all who attended for the four days. Once again, the same activities helped to provide a fun, yet faith-centered experience for these young girls.

Many thanks to the pastor, Father Dennis Gordon, FSSP, for having the Sisters visit Idaho, and for providing the daily Latin Mass for the camp! He is remembered in our prayers. What a wonderful parish!

On February 19 and 21, 2022, two Sisters directed a Morning Star Mini-Camp in El Paso, Texas!

Hosted by Immaculate Conception Parish, the Sisters brought the Marian spirit of the camp to about forty girls from the parish. The two-day schedule included everything from Mass and Rosary to arts & crafts, sports, singing, and the highlight event—ribbon dancing!

Everyone had a great time, and we look forward to returning in the future. Special thanks to Fr. O’Neill, Nicholla Arriola, the Knights of Columbus, and all the moms who helped make this event possible! We couldn’t have done it without you. Additional thanks to Our Lady of the Assumption Parish for allowing us to use their school facilities for this event. May Our Lady Morning Star guide and bless you and all her campers!
