Gifted! Journey of Faith Confirmation Retreats

 
Every believer, regardless of age, has been gifted and equipped by God for their journey of faith. But how can they know what gifts they've been given? What are some of the personal "building blocks" they will need to sustain them on their journey? These questions will be explored in order to help young people grow in their understanding of how they have been gifted by God. They will share in small-group activities and discussions, as well as joining with groups from other churches in games, group-building, crafts and a campfire. A pastor or other adult leader needs to attend with every ten youth. You can choose either a one-night or two-night option.
The fee is $91 for two nights or $64 for one-night. Please see registration information for deposits and deadlines.
