Cost & Donations
Sacred Music Camp is completely free for all students.
We believe every child should have the opportunity to grow in faith and sacred music, regardless of financial means. To keep the camp free, we humbly welcome support in a variety of forms.
🙏 Prayer – The Most Important Gift
We ask for your prayers for the success of this camp — that it may be spiritually fruitful for the students and glorifying to God. Your prayer is a powerful offering, and we rely on it above all else.
Please pray:
- For the students to grow in their love of Christ and the Church
- For the teachers and volunteers to serve joyfully and wisely
- For the music we prepare to lift hearts to God in Solemn Vespers
💵 Suggested Donation (Optional)
A suggested donation of $30 per student is appreciated, but not required. These funds help cover music materials, supplies, and other costs.
🍽️ Food Donations & Volunteer Cooks
We serve dinner each evening from Sunday through Thursday, and you can support the camp by:
- Donating food items (we’ll share a list soon)
- Volunteering to cook dinner one evening (as many families graciously did last year)
We are deeply grateful for all forms of support — prayer, time, food, or finances — all given for the greater glory of God.
To donate or volunteer, please Contact Oscar Hernandez.
