Outside of our regular Youth Group gatherings, we provide opportunities for youth to gather in fun, casual settings.
These can may include game nights, movie nights, lock-ins, area outings, and more.
Each year we take our youth to a few different retreats aimed at further developing their relationship with God. In the fall we attend the Fall Youth Retreat at Camp Indianola, one of our United Methodist Church camps. It's located on the Olympic peninsula, across the water from Seattle. Over Memorial Day weekend, we attend Convo, a large youth conference, at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, WA.

Each year is a little different, but work can include construction/repair projects, site cleanup, food bank, children's programming, homeless outreach, and more. Recent trips have included San Diego, CA (2019), Cortez, CO (2018), Portland, OR (2017), and Coeur d'Alene, ID (2016).
