POSSIBLY THE BEST WEEKEND OF YOUR LIFE!!
The theme for this weekend retreat is “One Of A Kind.” Over the course of four unique retreat sessions, we’ll ask students the question, “Who are you . . . really?” Many of us are one person at home, another person with our friends, and someone else around our school’s principal. That’s not a bad thing, but all the versions can make it difficult to know the REAL you. This weekend, we’re diving into who you are and who you were created to be. As we do, we may just find ourselves stepping away from average, moving past what is “normal,” and into a life that is one-of-a-kind.
How to Register: Register/pay online by filling out the form below (or on the register tab) no later than November 5th. (Space is limited)
Students will need to be at the church by 5:30 on Friday afternoon November 12th. They should eat supper or a snack before coming to the church. We will not be making any scheduled stops on the trip. We plan on being back to the church around 11:30ish on Sunday.
