Love, Joy, Peace...
Where faith meets new heights!
A weekend, designed specifically for high school students preparing for college in the next few years. Our goal is to show the necessity of considering your spiritual life and a church family when selecting somewhere to gain a higher education. Without mom and dad reminding you to get up, go to class, or get ready for church, there are times when the newfound "freedom" can effect us in ways that harm our walk with the Lord.
