HOLLAND'S YOUTH UPCOMING EVENTS
High School Campout on April 16-18
Prayer? Why is prayer so important? What should we say in a Prayer? Is there a wrong way to Pray? Please join us for a weekend camping retreat, April 16-18, to dive into your Prayer life (non-existent or withering) and grow deep with God!
Parent arranges transportation to and from camp which is about a 45-50 min drive to the Falls Lake Campground from the church. Youth are not allowed to drive due to restricted number of parking spaces. Arrival is Friday 6-6:30 pm. If you cannot arrive prior to 7 pm on Friday night, then you'll need to wait until Saturday morning as the camp is closed at sunset. Departure/Pick-up is Sunday at 11:30 am.
A schedule and a comprehensive list of what to bring will be sent out prior the week prior to the weekend. However, everyone should make sure they have a 2-6 person tent to use. (Due to COVID each person will have their own tent. Tents may only be shared with someone with whom you live.)
Registration is due by April 11. Registration includes signing up AND paying the $30 retreat fee. Payment can be made online on the church website under the GIVE tab (choose Youth Event) or by check. Please indicate "Campout" and youth's name for whatever form of payment you choose. The retreat fee covers the cost of the group campsites, meals, and any program supplies. Cost is the same for the first 2 siblings in a family; additional siblings are free. Scholarships are available upon confidential request.

Holland’s UMYF will once again journey this summer to retreat at beautiful Lake Junaluska! This retreat is open to any youth in grades 6-12 during the 2021-2022 school year. The weekend will be led by a group called M28 Camp. The weekend will be filled with large group sessions, discipleship groups (D-Groups), workshops, worship, a talent show and entertainment. There will be special separate D-Groups for our seniors and for adults. We will leave mid-morning on Thursday, July 8, and return on Sunday, July 11, by late afternoon.
