Here's what we'll be talking about:
What do you want to do when you grow up? We’ve all heard that question and we all know what it really means: What kind of job do you want to have? What is your ideal career? In church language we have often called that your “vocation” or your “calling". But what if my vocation or my calling is bigger then the job that I will someday get paid for? What if my vocation can be lived out right now whether I am 13, 30 or 93?
This weekend, while hanging out and having fun with Anglican youth from throughout the diocese, we will be looking to discover who God has created us to be, and asking “what is my part in God’s rhythm that is pulsing all around us?”
Bus Information
A bus has been organized for those in the GTA. The bus will leave from Church of the Incarnation (Sheppard & Bayview).
Cost is $20 round-trip and can be paid with your registration. Bus will depart at 6:30pm.
Group Policy
If your church is sending 4 or more youth to the retreat, you must send a youth leader (18 years or older) who has been screened according to the Diocesan Screening in Faith Policy. For those sending less than 4 youth, we will assign a Diocesan Youth Ministry Apprentice to be a chaperone.
