The majority of Mexicans claim a Roman Catholic tradition; there are active cults; the population of Mexico is, on average, young.
Our partner organization Retiros Y Campamentos Con Aventura (RYCCA) is involved with the development of camps in various locations in Mexico:
The Caldwells have acted as consultants for Verbo churches. The church has owned land for a number of years in a beautiful mountain setting two hours from Monterrey. They hold camps and are considering directing funds toward the development of their own property.
Mexico is divided into states similarly to the US
RYCCA (pronounced "ree-ka") or Retiros Y Campamentos Con Aventura A.C. is a non-profit organization formed to establish Christ-centered camps throughout the country of Mexico. RYCCA carries out CI's strategies in Mexico. ("Retiros Y Campamentos Con Aventura" is translated "Retreats and Camps With Adventure").
The RYCCA camp is governed by an all-Mexican, Christian board of directors.
RYCCA provides academic teaching and practical experience for those considering ministering to children in the role of camp counselor. Tranining is designed to enhance one's ability to develop discipling relationships and better utilize group settings. RYCCA seeks to present the Gospel of Jesus Christ through trained counselors using the media of Christian Camping.
RYCCA is a member of Christian Camping International - Latin America/Mexico.
