ig retreats for both groups.Middle school will be heading to Dolfin's Cabin June 26th-28th for our Made retreat. While the deadline is past we don't want anyone left out, so please go ahead and get signed up! It will be an amazing weekend of big high energy games, crazy and wacky upfront games, tubing, jet skis, paddle boats, row boats, swimming, eating, hanging out, jumping off things, and more. I am probably most excited about the worship sessions we have already been hard at work planning. I promise you they will be way different then anything you've experienced before, with a blend of old and new songs, crazy lighting, tons of media, dramas, and other hands out stuff. Our worship will center on who God has made us to be. A few years ago MTV had this show where kids asked MTV to help make them into someone they were not (an athlete, dancer, beauty queen, etc.). It was a fun show, and really highlights a big problem we all face. I think we all want to be something we're not, instead of be excited about who God actually made us to be. So, that's what we're gonna be looking at.

Our high schoolers will head to Dolfin's cabin August 6-9th for their own time of games, water fun, worship, and growing closer to God. The high school trip will have a slightly different feel then our middle school adventure, as it will have far more opportunity for students to hangout, build relationships, and make their own zany fun. It's also going to have it's own serious side, as we'll have high energy worship sessions focused on our theme of Refuel. We're going to be looking at a problem I see all the time, and that is our spiritual gas tanks running on empty. This weekend we want to fill our lives back up with God, as well as learn how we can keep our tank filled every day. The theme is build around the great book Refuel by Doug Fields, which I actually recommend to both students and adults. Sign up for the HS trip starts this weekend and ends June 21st.
