The North Georgia Conference plans and leads retreats for children, youth, and families throughout the year.
The remarkable thing about these retreats is that they are an excellent opportunity for you, the leaders of your ministry, to focus on the relationships and leave the setup, administration, the planning - the basic "mechanics" of the retreat - to us.
We use excellent speakers and leaders and have experience in planning and carrying out spiritually focused retreats. Each retreat has a special focus or theme and is planned with the priority of providing an environment for spiritual growth and a "working of the soil" in which the seeds of faith have been planted.
