Job Description:
The United Society, founded in 1972 by Fr. Claudio Piccinini, C.P. (Passionist) is a Mission made up of individuals, families, religious and priests.
One of the programs offered by The United Society is the Teopoli Summer Experience, (T.S.E.). Since 1973 this program has been of immense value to the children and staff who have taken part in it. The T.S.E. serves a valuable human and spiritual need for children by helping them build confidence and belief in their own worth and dignity. It helps the adults by inviting them to collaborate with one another to create a world where people are treated more equally and fairly.
Teopoli is a Catholic Spiritual Centre, which offers children and staff the opportunity to spend four 12-day sessions throughout July and August in the beautiful, natural setting of the Muskoka region. Teopoli, which means City of God, consists of 200 acres near Gravenhurst. For the well being of all those involved, Teopoli complies with Ontario Health regulations and is fully insured.
To work as a counselor at Teopoli means being involved in the future of our world and society. The staff is that component of the T.S.E. program that makes the spiritual and philosophical content of the program come alive. It is a Mission, it requires a call and a great desire to change and improve, to lead and to correct, to inspire and to build the characters of the children aged 6-16 who will attend this year’s T.S.E.
The staff plans and takes part in arts and crafts, canoeing, drama, culture, theology, music, overnight camping, fishing, swimming, and other outdoor activities. In addition, children and staff participate in morning and evening prayers and in the daily celebration of the Eucharist.
