Youth Intercultural Bridging Program to Australia
The Community of Christ Youth Intercultural Bridge Program is a dynamic initiative designed to strengthen the bonds between California and Australian youth through shared experiences and fellowship. This program invites senior high youth from California to travel to Australia and join their Australian peers at High School Camp. The goal of this trip—and future excursions—is to rebuild connections and bridge the gap between our youth, fostering a renewed sense of unity and belonging within the global Community of Christ family.
At High School Camp, participants engage in a variety of activities that encourage teamwork, cultural exchange, and spiritual growth. Through collaborative games, worship services, and meaningful discussions, the youth develop friendships that transcend geographic boundaries. This program not only enriches personal faith journeys but also builds a foundation for ongoing intercultural relationships, helping young people appreciate the diverse expressions of community and faith around the world.
