Teen Retreat
DESCRIPTION
The Teen Retreat is specifically designed to assist young people (ages 13-19) with their spiritual growth while encouraging them stand firm in the Gospel of Christ. Camp Lamoka is serious about helping the church raise up young men and women of faith who are ready and prepared to stand for Christ in a fallen world. This will require training, education, faith, and courage!
During the retreat, this training and discipleship is paired with a engaging, fun-filled program led by our experienced staff for a well-rounded camping experience! Register your teen for this weekend of growth and fun today!
What to Bring & Bedding: Please bring bedding (for a twin bed – sheets and blankets or a sleeping bag), sneakers for any activities you want to participate in, a Bible, notebook, pen, spending money (optional), Flash light (optional), bathing suit (if you want to swim or tube, it is still chilly at this time of year, but it may be an option), toiletries, etc. We do have all of the above on campus if you forget something.
ACTIVITIES
This year’s featured activities include Laser Tag, Zipline, and Axe Throwing. You will sign up for one of these three when you arrive – first come, first serve. We will also be doing several group games and activities, and much, much more!
2023 THEME: “The Big Questions”
2023 SPEAKER: Scott Paris
BIO: My name is Scott Paris and I’m an associate pastor at Central Baptist Church in Binghamton, New York. I will have been married for four years this summer, and my wife, Amanda, and I are parents to two amazing little girls. When I’m not at the church leading worship or running our youth ministry, I love hiking, playing board games, or reading. I’m so excited to be able to be at Lamoka this summer and share about how amazing Jesus is, the God-man who, if everything He did were written down “I suppose that not even the world itself could contain the books that would be written”! (John 21:25)
