Silverion (The Kingdom of the Holy Spirit) is a Catholic medieval fantasy camp for children and teenagers aged 8-16.

The camp uses a "mythopoetic" storytelling approach— inspired by the works of J.R.R. Tolkien—to help young people explore their faith. It was founded in New Zealand in 2019 and has since expanded to include international events.

“To the Children of Light were granted the Ten Star Kingdoms, into which were poured all light and all hope. The wind whispered through the night, carrying a fragrance that would change history forever”…

In this 3 part cycle the tale of Ranger Earendel and the Children of Light, set in the mystical land of Fiæll Erda, cascades like autumn leaves in the mist. Listen then, as the sombre chant of the Bard echoes like the secrets of the forest, by silver streams and under myriad stars... Presented in the form of three theatrical plays, this book can be used to form the narrative basis of a Silverion Catholic Tolkien Medieval Fantasy Camp wherever the Spirit blows...

Young people from various parts of New Zealand had a life-changing encounter with the White Stag and the Lady of Light at Silverion Summer Camp 2020, held at Ngakuru Tyburn Monastery, near Rotorua, from January 17-19.
