It's almost time for our annual houseboat trip at Lake Don Pedro! Join us this summer for 5 days of fun on the lake. There will be recreation, water skiing, wakeboarding, and tubing.
Our theme for this year's houseboat trip is Resonate. We're going to talk about the different voices we often give weight to in our lives and how God's voice is supreme, authoritative, and inviting us into a journey with Him. In John 10, Jesus talks about how He is the good shepherd, and his sheep know His Voice. He has called the disciples to follow Him, and He's calling us to as well! All upcoming 9th-graduating 12th graders are welcome!

Our mission is to give every individual an accurate picture of God by helping those who believe become fully devoted followers of Christ.
