C.R.E.W. Fall Retreat

This past weekend was a rich and refreshing time away for our youth and leaders! We stayed at a private cabin on a lake that offered the perfect setting to slow down, connect with God, and build deeper relationships with one another.

Our theme for this year in CREW has been Discipleship, so we set out to be intentional with every part of our retreat. We spent evenings gathered around the campfire in worship, listened to messages about spiritual disciplines that help us grow closer to Jesus, and had time for reflection and prayer.

On Saturday, after a message on Serving, we put what we learned into action by helping our host family with outdoor projects to prepare their property for winter. It was such a joy to work together and serve as a team!

Of course, there was plenty of fun too - fishing from the docks and pontoon, taking brave leaps from the rope swing into the lake (and racing back to the hot tub to warm up!), playing games, and hiking through the beautiful fall woods nearby.

We came home grateful - thankful for laughter, for God’s presence, and for the ways He continues to shape us as disciples who love and serve Him together.
