DUE TO LACK OF INTEREST, TREK RETREAT 2020 HAS BEEN CANCELLED. SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE.
Like everything else this year, the middle school retreat will look a bit different this time around, but the hallmarks are the same: we’re going to have loads of fun, laugh a lot, hear from God’s word, and spend valuable time with our D-Groups.
This year, the MS retreat will be held on three separate days – one for each grade – at the Nantahala Outdoor Center in Bryson City, NC. We’ll be whitewater rafting on the Nantahala as well as zip lining on their guided course in the mountains.
In the afternoon, we’ll gather for some teaching and d-group time, before we get back on the road. We’ll spend the day talking about our need and desire for friendship, which feels more important now than it ever has been.
We are so excited that we get to spend these Saturdays with you all and can’t wait to see what God does in these times!

7th grade – October 17th
