Why go to Winter Retreat?
We believe Winter Retreat is the best weekend of the year!! This is an immersive 3 day experience for Praise Youth to grow closer in their relationships with God and with each other! We say it’s a spiritual and relational mountain top moment that creates momentum in their lives!
Praise Church staff and volunteers are blessed to be able to run our very own retreat with the Praise Youth family in mind, which gives us a few, very unique opportunities. First, we are incredibly specific and intentional in the relationships that are built between small groups and the adult small group leaders that they are already doing life with every week. Second, we pinpoint the exact vision and ministry that God is leading us to for Praise Youth and express it through a highly engaging experience. This is a CAN’T MISS weekend! Oh yeah, and there’s a ton of fun stuff too! This will be the best weekend of the year!
