Almighty God, bless Canterbury Retreat and Conference Center and Camp Wingmann: make them places of spiritual renewal, Godly growth, refreshment and peace for your people, young and old. By your power make Camp Wingmann always to be a place for kids to come to have fun and grow in their faith in Christ; May your Holy Spirit guide Canterbury to greater mission and effectiveness for the expansion of your Kingdom, that people would come to know Jesus as Savior and Lord; through Jesus Christ Our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

Possible Insert for Bulletins
Camp Wingmann and the Canterbury Retreat and Conference Center are valuable assets to the
spiritual life of the Diocese of Central Florida. They are set apart as sacred spaces for the nurture of faith and equipping for ministry of the people of God, where youth and adults go to be renewed and refreshed in their relationship with Almighty God. They are places where Jesus is Lord and lives are changed.
Camp Wingmann is the center for diocesan youth events with a growing and vibrant summer camp program. Children and youth come here to have fun and to learn to love Jesus and serve Him as Lord of their lives.
