Cancelled in 2021
It has been over a year that everyone has been dealing with the effects of COVID on our everyday lives. For many it has created a lot of stress, loneliness, or even just a longing to be around people again. This retreat is created to be a fresh new start. Our hope is that not only will you have fun, but also be encouraged, equipped, and ready to face the challenges of everyday life from a Biblical perspective. If you or someone you know would welcome new insights and encouragement, or if you are a youth leader who would love to come alongside your students, then this is the just the retreat for that. We cannot wait for you to join us for this amazing, encouraging weekend.
