LABOR DAY WEEKEND

September 1st - 4th, 2023

The Weekend is an annual gathering of people from different generations, locations, and vocations. We come together to learn from one another and to encounter the person of Jesus through story, friendship, and community.

 

Who is The Weekend for?  Everyone!  This is a great opportunity to experience as a family or with a group of friends, neighbors or colleagues.

What to expect:

  • Tools to help center your life on the teachings of  Jesus.

  • A multigenerational, community experience.

  • Activities such as a zip line, swimming pool, go-karts, basketball courts, frisbee golf, and more!

  • Building friendships in a variety of contexts.

  • Morning and evening sessions, with plenty of free time in between (the basic schedule is below).

  • Small groups for teens and adults.

  • Kids' Club is available for kids ages 3+.
