Spring Youth Retreat 2024

On the surface, retreats can often seem self-serving. But the Youth Spring Retreat 24’ was a beautiful experience of seeing our community come together in profound ways. Our staff and youth families helped host a student group from Good Shepherd NY at the City Church Office! Our adult volunteers + student ministry staff ran one of the smoothest, most fun retreats I’ve experienced during my time here. Our students had a wonderful time getting to know the Good Shepherd Youth, leaving many asking when we could visit our new friends in New York who now feel like church family. Though exhausted, we left this retreat with full hearts and with renewed inspiration to make our home in Jesus.
