Last weekend, our church hosted the annual Youth Retreat, a three-day event filled with worship, fellowship, and spiritual growth. Held at the serene Green Valley Retreat Center, the event brought together over 50 young people from our community to connect with God and each other.
The theme for this year’s retreat was “Anchored in Christ”, inspired by Hebrews 6:19:
“We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.”
Throughout the retreat, attendees participated in:
- Morning Devotionals led by Pastor James.
- Workshops on topics such as “Living Out Your Faith” and “Overcoming Peer Pressure.”
- Outdoor Activities like team-building games, hikes, and a bonfire worship night.
One of the highlights was the testimony session, where several participants shared how God has been working in their lives. Sarah, a first-time attendee, said:
“This retreat has been life-changing. I feel more connected to God and have made friendships that will last a lifetime.”
We are grateful to everyone who volunteered their time and resources to make this retreat a success. Special thanks to the parents who provided transportation and snacks, and to the church family for your prayers and support.
Stay tuned for information about next year’s Youth Retreat, and let’s continue to pray for the seeds of faith planted during this special time together.
