SUMMARY:Men's Retreat 2026
DESCRIPTION:Power Down: A Weekend of Rest and Renewal \nIn a world that demands we stay constantly connected\, “on\,” and available\, the greatest\nact of strength isn’t doing more — it’s having the courage to stop. \nThis year’s men’s retreat\, Power Down\, is an invitation to silence the noise and step\naway from the digital grind. We’re heading to Pocono Plateau to trade screen time for\ncampfire time\, and notification pings for meaningful time in community with each other.\nOur theme is rooted in the words of Jesus to His disciples: \n“And he said to them\, ‘Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while.’;\nFor many were coming and going\, and they had no leisure even to eat” — Mark 6:31 \nWhat to Expect \n\nUnplugged Environment: A chance to physically and mentally disconnect from\nthe pressures of work\, home-life\, and technology.\nTrue Fellowship: Real conversations with men who are navigating through\ndifferent seasons of life.\nSpiritual Recharging: Focused sessions designed to help you hear God’s voice\nover the static of daily life.\nOutdoor Adventure: Plenty of space for hiking\, recreation\, and simply enjoying\nthe stillness of the woods. Plenty of free time will be built into our schedule!\n\nSometimes\, to move forward with purpose\, you first have to Power Down. \nSign Up Here

SUMMARY:Confirmation Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Weekend Theme: “My Methodist Identity” \nProfessing one’s commitment to live out the United Methodist baptismal and membership covenant vows is an important life decision for our confirmands. This retreat provides space for confirmands to join with youth from other congregations as they explore their identity and purpose as Christians in the Methodist faith. \nAs confirmands wrap up a series of classes in their local church\, they might wonder what is next? Our retreat builds off lessons learned in those confirmation classes and prepares confirmands to reflect on how to use their gifts\, faith\, purpose\, and Christian identity in daily living. Confirmands will use these gifts to create and lead Sunday’s closing worship as an expression of their voice as a new member of the United Methodist Church. \nThe retreat’s key scripture verse is Ephesians 2:10: For we are God’s handiwork\, created in Christ Jesus to do good works\, which God prepared in advance for us to do. \nComplete this church survey form to learn more and sign up for your church. As we get closer to the event\, we will send over more details about waivers\, health forms\, and individual registration forms. \nCost is for this retreat: $130 for Confirmands $65 for Chaperones Register Here
