Retreats
5th – 6th Grade (Intermediate), 7th – 8th Grade (Middle School), 9th Grade
Soon after school begins, three of our student groups, spanning 5th-9th grades head to Livingston, TX or New Ulm, TX for a spiritual retreat. These overnight trips are filled with fun and fellowship. The camps are dedicated to providing a fun, safe environment, and helping people to grow spiritually. The students enjoy a morning worship time and student-led scripture readings before heading out to the camp grounds for an afternoon of outdoor, team-building activities.
The schedule includes kayaking, hiking, archery, swimming, a ropes course, and the infamous BLOB, an enormous water toy built for launching adventurous children into the air.
12th Grade (Senior Experience)
Senior Experience is a two-day excursion spent at the Forest Glen Retreat Center outside of Huntsville, TX. Favorites of the trip include flag football, the male vs. female water balloon/shaving cream fight, capture the flag in the dark, and canoeing.
There is also time for devotionals and reflection where the seniors are encouraged to refocus on God and to make preparations for the future. This tradition allows seniors to have fun together and create lasting memories before heading off to college!
