Upcoming Events and Information

Retreat - The Confirmation Retreat is on May 5th from 2:30pm to 8:30pm . All candidates (teens preparing for Confirmation) are required to attend the retreat in-full. The retreat will include dinner. We need some help to make the retreat a success, please see below for our current needs.
Host Families Needed - We need host families to house the young adults from NET ministries while they are here for our Confirmation retreat. Host homes need to provide a sleeping location on the evenings of 5/5 and likely on 5/6 as well. You are also expected to provide them with breakfast and dinner on 5/6 and breakfast and a bagged lunch on 5/7. You will be notified in advance of any allergies that may exist. If you are interested, please complete the on-line form and someone will be in touch to let you know if anyone will be staying with you and their information.

Volunteers Needed - We need help (parents and sponsors would be ideal for this) to help "behind the scenes" with the retreat. Volunteers will usher participants to where they should be, help to serve and clean-up dinner, and act as hall monitors during the event. Please sign-up for a shift to help!
