‘Heartbreaking’: Texas Church Cancels Kids Event After 80 Test Positive for COVID-19 at Youth Camp

July 20, 2021 by Staff

(The Christian Post) A Texas church network has announced that it is canceling a children’s camp event after around 80 participants of an earlier youth camp event tested positive for COVID-19.

South Texas District Church of the Nazarene, which is made up of around 100 congregations, had originally scheduled its Kid’s Camp for July 19-23.

However, the church group posted a statement on its Facebook page announcing the cancellation. It cited “over 80 COVID cases that can be traced directly to our STX Youth Camp held last week, July 5-9.”

“That number has grown daily for six consecutive days. That number includes several who were vaccinated and still became ill with the COVID virus,” explained STDC.
