Consider bringing the youth and young adults from your church to the Youth & Young Adult Retreat on April 19-21 at Camp Cedar Crest! We have an excellent speaker, Santiago Acosta. The worship team from The Rock in Las Vegas will lead our worship. Small and home groups will give your students time to connect, discuss, and reflect on our theme for the weekend, "Be Real." Getting away from home and the routine of daily life is what so many of us need to reconnect to our walk with Jesus.
