Catholic Retreats and Oases for Children and Teens

Catholic retreats, oases and other formational camps are a unique space for children and young people where faith meets friendship, adventure and meaningful conversation. They are a time for spiritual growth, self-reflection and building community with peers. On Bookkido you'll find offers for oases, retreats and formational trips organised by parishes, Catholic movements and church organisations.

In this category you'll find: oasis retreats (Light-Life Movement), evangelisation retreats, summer formational trips for children and teens, school retreats, prayer and formational gatherings, charismatic camps, Altar Server trips, Catholic scout camps and other forms of spiritual residential experiences.

A Range of Options for Children and Teens

Choosing the right activities can be key to nurturing your child's development. On Bookkido you'll find organisers with a variety of options to match individual needs and schedules:

• Regular formational and oasis meetings - regular gatherings of an oasis group or community where children and young people develop their faith, pray together, discuss and build genuine community.
• Day camps - multi-day trips during school holidays or term time combining prayer, workshops, physical activity and free time in an inspiring environment.
• Residential camps - full formational trips lasting several days or more. Oases and residential retreats are a time of intensive encounter with God, friends and oneself in beautiful locations in Poland or abroad.
