Retreat Highlights

Faith Comes to Life

Young adults at our weekend retreats will have the opportunity to engage in chapel sessions filled with powerful teaching, worship, and meaningful conversations. Moments of reflection by the lake and genuine connections with others create space for deeper faith and renewal. Every part of the weekend is designed to encourage spiritual growth and strengthen your relationship with Christ.

From crisp walks through the towering evergreens to cozying up with a hot chocolate from the café, every moment at camp is filled with connection and fun. Guests can challenge themselves with indoor games, relax by the fire with friends, and build lifelong memories through group activities and meaningful conversations.
