2025 Camp Saint Paul
A heartfelt thank you to Maria Stephanopoulos for this incredible video she created and donated, beautifully capturing the unforgettable visit of His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros to Camp Saint Paul. Your talent and generosity preserved a moment of grace, joy, and unity with our Spiritual father that we will treasure forever. What a gift to witness our campers and staff walking in faith and love through your lens. Thank you, Maria, for telling our story with such heart.
