Youth Fall Retreat 2026 — NEW DATES Dec 30- Jan 2

We will be heading to Panama City Beach, Florida for Fall Retreat this year and your student won’t want to miss! Our theme this year is “Closer Than You Think.” This theme was born out of students expressing their desire to feel close to God and experience His presence on a deeper level. During Fall Retreat, we will be talking about how God is closer than we think—even when we don’t feel His presence—and learn how we can find true spiritual rest in Him. In the middle of busy schedules, distractions, and the pressures of everyday life, students will have the opportunity this weekend to slow down, draw near to God, and hopefully experience truly resting in His presence. My hope is that we leave Fall Retreat spiritually renewed and reminded that God is always near, always present, and always inviting us to rest in Him. I would like to ask you as our church family to please be in prayer for our students and our leaders as we prepare and attend Fall Retreat.
