Young Adult Retreat

August 21 - 24, 2025
To Young Adult Ministries

Relationships: Rooted in Christ, Connected with Others

  • Date: August 21 - 24, 2025
  • Location: Camp Lawroweld
  • Cost: $50
  • Meals will be plant-based
  • Children must be supervised at all times by parents as there will be no childcare or programming.
  • What to bring: Bible, your own bedding/sheets/sleeping bag (twin beds), pillow, towels, toiletries, warm clothes, swim suit, hiking boot/sneakers, instruments if you want to play along with the music team, a great attitude since God is GOOD!
In a world that often pulls us apart, this young adult retreat is about coming back to the heart of relationships—with God, with yourself, and with others. Over the course of our time together, we’ll dive deep into what it means to build relationships that are anchored in Christ’s love, equipping you with practical tools to navigate friendships, family, community, and even conflict.

Expect engaging sessions, real conversations, and interactive activities that will challenge and encourage you. We’ll explore:

* How your relationship with God shapes every other connection in your life
* What it means to love like Jesus
* Healthy communication, conflict resolution, and setting boundaries
* God’s design for friendships, romantic relationships, and community
* Finding your identity in Christ and living with purpose* and More!

Whether you're seeking deeper friendships, healing from relational hurt, or simply wanting to grow in how you love and connect with others, this retreat is for you.
Come ready to reflect, learn, and build lasting connections in a Christ-centered environment!
