Hey 4HG Peeps!
As a reminder, this week there will be no youth happening at the church as we are out at Camp Nutimik for our MBA (Manitoba Baptist Association) Retreat! We will be back in the building on the 29th of September
For those who have registered for the retreat here is what you need to know:
We have at least 75 people signed up from 5 different churches. It will be a great time of teaching, bible discussions, worship, getting to know each other, games, good food and more!
As this retreat approaches, we want to ensure that everyone is well-prepared. Here are some important details:
Payment Instructions:
Each church will collect payment from their students on Friday. ($100)
Write a cheque payable to your church and indicate “youth retreat” in the memo, same is applicable to e-transfers.
What to Bring:
Clothes, including t-shirts, shorts, and pants. The forecast suggests there might be some rain during the weekend. Be prepared to embrace the elements and enjoy outdoor activities.
Closed-toed shoes and clothes which are suitable for outdoor field games.
A towel for showering.
Toiletries (toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, deodorant, etc.).
Pillow and sleeping bag or bedding for bunk beds.
What NOT to Bring:
Cell phones, laptops, iPads, or similar electronic devices.
Cigarettes, drugs, alcohol, marijuana, or vaping devices.
Expensive clothing or shoes (to avoid damage during outdoor activities).
Food or snacks (we provide plenty of food, and we need to be sensitive to allergies).
Any form of body spray or perfumes (due to allergies).
Weapons of any kind.
Please take note of these guidelines to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all participants. If you have any questions or need further information, don’t hesitate to reach out.
Transportation:
You’ll have to find your own way there and back, however if you would like to connect with others going and create a car pool, that is perfectly acceptable. There are going to be some leaders going who will have space in their vehicles and are willing to drive students. As long as everyone is clear on who drops off and who picks up we will be good. Drop-off at camp is Friday at 6:30pm, pickup from camp is Sunday at 1:30pm.
If you have any questions or need further information, don’t hesitate to reach out.
