Youth Retreat

Our Annual Classis Lake Superior Youth Retreat is a weekend for students in Grades 8–12 to step away from the busyness of everyday life and spend intentional time growing in their faith. Over the course of the weekend, students will take part in engaging sessions, meaningful conversations, and times of worship, all alongside youth from across our Classis.

The retreat is designed to create space for students to ask honest questions, build real connections, and be encouraged in their walk with God. With a mix of structured sessions and shared experiences throughout the weekend, it’s an opportunity to form lasting friendships, strengthen faith, and be part of something bigger than their own church community.

Location: This year we are once again returning to Camp Arnes for our retreat.

Located on the shores of Lake Winnipeg, Camp Arnes offers an ideal setting for a memorable and engaging retreat experience. The camp features a wide range of activities designed to bring both excitement and connection, including high ropes, zip lining, archery, and a giant swing, along with open spaces for group games and time by the water. With its mix of adventure, natural beauty, and well-equipped facilities, Camp Arnes creates an environment where students can have fun, build strong friendships, and fully engage in everything the retreat has to offer.
