Whispering Winds - Ambassadors

PURPOSE

The Ambassador Program was developed to enable Whispering Winds to keep Parishes, Schools and supporters of the camp connected to Whispering Winds. This program seeks to keep every Parish and School informed as to the opportunities and benefits of a Catholic Camp and Conference Center serving Southern California, and how each can more fully utilize this facility to promote the Catholic Christian message of the Church.

WHAT IS AN AMBASSADOR?

First and foremost, and Ambassador is an “Ambassador for Christ,” someone committed to the message of Jesus and the spreading of the Good News. Secondly, an Ambassador is a supporter of Whispering Winds as an environment to let God do His good work with each of us.

Ambassadors should be individuals or couples that have been to Whispering Winds and experienced one or more of our programs. Ambassadors can also be members of Cursillo, the Women’s Auxiliary or other support groups and committees of Whispering Winds.
