ALF 2023 Regional Youth Retreat in Winnipeg

If you are a grade 7 to 12 youth, we welcome you to register for the upcoming region-wide youth retreat, being held at St. Mary’s Road United Church in Winnipeg, Friday Oct 20th at 6:30 pm to Sunday, Oct 22nd at 1:00 pm.

A great opportunity to make friends with other youth from across the United Church’s Prairie to Pine Region while exploring the theme through Worship, Song and Inter-active Theme Times.  The retreat wouldn’t be complete without social time — dancing, games, chatting over meals (and canteen treats)! …and then rolling out your sleeping bag on the church floor to dream sweet dreams surrounded by new and old friends resting up for another busy exciting day!

This retreat’s theme is “Lost in Translation: The History of the Bible, How it has Changed through the Ages, and Whose Voices are Missing.”

Whose voices do you think are missing from the Bible? Let’s name them together and see if we can find ways to honour those voices, too.

Invite your friends, neighbours, cousins (the ones you see often and the ones you would like to see more often!)

Haven’t been to a retreat before?  – See: Retreat description for potential participants.

To allow all to attend, no matter their family’s financial status, the fee is suggested on a “pay what you can” scale from full fee of $95 down to $0.

• Registration deadline: Oct 11th
