Winter Retreat (age 15-19)

Come to Storybook Lodge for a great time of fellowship, skiing and snowboarding at nearby Giants Ridge! Jason Pettys and Caleb Bulow will be speaking this year. This retreat is for teens age 15 and up.

The retreat starts with supper starting at 6pm on Dec 26 and wraps up after lunch on Saturday, December 30th.

Description

Winter Retreat starts the day after Christmas and goes until New Year’s Eve. Teens and young adults can enjoy a week of Bible teaching, delicious food, quality fellowship, and winter activities (including daily skiing trips to Giant’s Ridge ski resort!)

This week is a chance to unplug and reconnect with friends, mentors, and most importantly, the Lord. Sound Bible teaching bolsters spiritual growth, and there is plenty of time to reflect, discuss, and deepen friendships.

While the gym is almost always busy with basketball, volleyball, or dodgeball tournaments, the outdoors provides opportunities to sled, trek across the frozen lake, go ice fishing, or play broomball and snow football. If you want to warm up, there are often board games and hot beverages in the dining hall or impromptu music sessions in the chapel.

Each day there is an opportunity to go to Giant’s Ridge for skiing or snowboarding. Bring your gear or rent from the resort; you will also need to purchase your own lift ticket each day.
