Welcome all Middle and High School students!
The Weekend is a discipleship intensive Friday through Sunday event where students will engage in worship, biblical teaching from a guest speaker, community service and christian community. This will be a time where students will be challenged to take the next step in their faith journey as well as grow relationships with their group leaders and peers.
Students will be housed with their small group at assigned Graceland Member homes. (NOTE: All group hosts and leaders have completed background checks and Child Safety Training)
This year’s theme is Imitator! We will take a deep dive into Ephesians 5:1-2 talking through what it looks like to Imitate the life and love of Jesus.
Friday Evening Students will begin at Graceland for Worship and Teaching Session followed by transport to their host home to complete group time with their leader.
Saturday morning, students will be transported to the church after breakfast for worship, teaching, and lunch. The afternoon will be filled with service project awesomeness and fellowship with their group. They will get themselves cleaned up and eat dinner at their host home, and then return to the church.
