New Youth Camp to be Built in Beaumont With the approval Tuesday of Beaumont City Council, the Diocese of Beaumont is happy to announce that a new youth center is being built near Holy Family Retreat Center in north Beaumont. “The name will be ‘Christ Central Camp’ reflecting our desire for Christ to be central in the lives of our young people,” Bishop David Toups said about the camp. “May this new facility be a great blessing to our parishes, schools, youth and catechetical programs, and summer camp.” The camp will include a chapel, multipurpose building, cabins, pavilion, walking trails, swimming pool and lake. The entire project to construct the camp is being funded through the generosity of donors. This funding will also include money to assist with operational funds for the first year. Construction will begin soon on the project. The goal is for it to be ready for use for our Diocesan Summer Camp in July 2023.
