What is New
Beginnings? New Beginnings is a weekend
retreat for teenagers in grades 7-9. The weekend is led by a team of mostly
teenagers, a few adults, and a spiritual director or two. The weekend takes
us through a discovery about ourselves, our friends, our families, our faith,
and how to live out our faith in our daily lives.
Through making new
friends and sharing with old ones, through singing, skits, talks given by
teens, videos, games, worship, and conversation with each other! You are
encouraged to bring friends from your church and an adult who will stay
through the weekend. Everyone will take an active part in the program. You
can go to New Beginnings as many times as you’d like...as long as you’re in
grades 7-9. We know once you go, you will want to go
back. There is even an opportunity to serve on the team...you’ll hear more
about that at the weekend.
