CACCLC 2025

When: Labor Day Weekend, Fri. August 29 - Mon. September 1, 2025

Where: Santa Teresita Youth Conference Center in Three Rivers, CA

Who: Young Adults (age 18+)

Spiritual Director: Fr. Cheeyoon Chun

Theme: Rise Up and Follow Me

Throughout the weekend, we invite everyone to joyfully respond to God’s call to follow Him. When Jesus calls us, it is not simply an invitation to walk alongside Him — it is a call to total transformation. We leave behind our old selves to embrace a new life rooted in faith. As always, we aim to enrich the weekend with meaningful fellowship, spiritual growth, and opportunities for personal reflection. This year’s camp will be full of growth and joy, and we’re excited to have both new and familiar faces along for the journey.

About the Location

Santa Teresita Youth Conference Center is a Catholic Diocese of Fresno retreat facility located on 25 acres at the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains near Sequoia National Park.

St. Junipero Serra Youth Chapel features large windows to showcase nature all around. The sleeping arrangements are two large dormitories equipped with bunk beds, restrooms, shower facilities, and two chaperone rooms accommodating 5 adults per room (each with a private restroom and shower). Campers can also enjoy outdoor pool, basketball court, sports field, amphitheater, and more.

Getting there

The retreat center is about 4 hours drive from NorCal or SoCal, in the Diocese of Fresno. Most campers carpool with other local campers on Friday afternoon or night. If you are interested in carpooling, indicate so in your registration form and ExCo can help arrange carpool groups.

Get Directions

“Before I went to CACCLC last year I found myself in a state of just going through the motions with my faith. I reached one of those points where my faith was stale, uninspired, and stagnant. I think CACCLC really helped to reawaken my passion for Christ, particularly through the faith-sharing, testimonies, and presence of other Catholics and priests who are also struggling on their journeys to holiness.”

— Matthew W.

“Although it piqued my interest, I was a little hesitant to go alone ... After much doubt and deliberation, I convinced myself to just go. When I arrived, I was shocked to find so many Chinese Catholics under the age of 50 gathered in one place that weren’t related to me! I felt like I had stumbled into a nest of rare and mythical beings! Everyone was so friendly and welcoming that I didn’t feel out of place at all.”

— Jacqueline K.

What does CACCLC stand for?
It stands for California Chinese Catholic Living Camp, but our demographics have grown into a Pan-Asian American Catholic community. Check out more of our history, and how we’ve evolved to now form The Living Camp.

Do I have to be Chinese to attend CACCLC?
Nope! Although the roots of our camp are in the Chinese Catholic community, we welcome friends of any ethnicity to join us at camp. We usually have many non-Chinese friends and family who regularly join us at camp, including those from Korean, Vietnamese, Filipino, Latino, Caucasian, and mixed backgrounds.

Do I have to be Catholic to attend CACCLC?
Nope! You're most welcome to join us, regardless of your faith background. We typically have several non-Catholics at CACCLC and just ask that you be respectful to our Catholic traditions and keep an open heart during all the activities and discussions during the camp.
