Pilgrims have walked the Camino since the middle ages. It is an ancient faith practice of slowing down, walking and taking notice of our world. There are endless lessons that we learn on this incredible pilgrimage.  We will walk 75 miles over 7 days. Our bags will be transported, so we will walk with only a small back-pack each day. We will have 3 hikes in preparation for this trip and a required class on preparing spiritually.

Registration opens September 10, 2023.

Montreat Youth Conference affirms youth in their calling to be and to shape the church of today and tomorrow.  It is a place where authenticity, community, connection, and God’s truth thrive. 

Through daily worship, keynote, recreation, and small groups with hundreds of other young people of faith, Montreat helps youth form deep, spiritual, and intentional relationships with God, themselves, and others.  It is the perfect time for our current 8th graders to prepare for high school and just as perfect for graduated seniors to take a week to prepare for college.

Registration opens September 10, 2023.

Youth will do 12 Confirmation lessons,  create some rituals and practices they can incorporation into their daily life and reflect on their own faith journey. During the week, we will swim, hike, play four-square and other camp activities.
