Hey everyone!
From what I've heard so far, it was an amazing SNL last night and weekend of worship. As I am out of town this week, I am incredibly thankful to all our adult volunteers, student leaders and staff, and of course, Laura Russell for creating this awesome night.
Coming up this week, all weekly programming is in full swing, along a fair amount of Discovery Weekend Yard Signs still needing to be out in the community. I really want to encourage you to get one of these signs and place it in your yard in the coming weeks as we continue to reach out to our community and invite all students to Discovery Weekend.
- Robert, Youth Pastor.

DISCOVERY WEEKEND! March 3-5, 2023.
Full and Partial Scholarships are also available for any student in need. Simply indicate in the payment section.
Less than four weeks away from WONDER 2023!
Discovery Weekend is a Middle School retreat, hosted and held at Trinity United Methodist Church. At Discovery, your relationship with God is the focus. This is why we worship in new and creative ways that help you examine your life and understand the depth of God’s love. It’s a weekend where you are not only encouraged to be YOU, but where you might find out more than you ever knew about who you REALLY are!
It’s a jam-packed weekend full of games, small groups, incredible worship, funny videos, skits, DJs, great eats, messages from High School Seniors, and so much more. Parents, don’t worry though, this is NOT a lock-in. We want your students to get as much rest during Discovery as possible so that they can fully participate and share in the weekend!
