What are Sundays like at Glen Arden?
There is a very special quality to Sundays at Glen Arden. We dress in our whites and attend Sunday School in the Green Cathedral. The Green Cathedral is one of the most sacred and beautiful spots at camp and provides a quiet place of wonder for the whole camp family to worship. Sunday School consists of hymns sung by the Counselor Choir and a homily given by Casey. There are Bible readings from the Old Testament and readings that pertain to our spiritual life at camp and in the “real world.” In the afternoons we have at camp-wide clan event and in the evening we dress in our whites again and go back to the Green Cathedral for a vespers service. This is a service created by the campers for the campers and a different unit of campers is responsible each Sunday. In this way, the campers are allowed to put their own hearts and thoughts into the rituals of Sunday services.
