YOUTH DIRECTOR ADVENTURE TRIP

Wilderness experiences played a crucial role in the Biblical story and continue to play an important part in the faith stories of many of God’s people today.  Join other Youth Directors from across the country for an experiential week of exploring how a wilderness trek will impact your personal faith journey and the faith formation of youth you work with.  This 6-day adventure in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains is filled with three days of backpacking, white water rafting, and rock climbing.  Worship and Bible study are integral to the daily schedule and help you process the experience and “take it down the mountain.”

Program, food, lodging, and equipment are included in the $120 trip fee. Don’t miss this amazing continuing education experience! The trip is designed specifically for Youth Directors and Pastors working with youth.  It’s limited to the first 13 people to register. Transportation from area airports is available for an additional cost.
