The Behold Vision
Our goal for the retreat is to give high school students a “mountain top” experience — a weekend full of worship, connection with God and each other, and (most importantly) fun. It is our desire that each student return from Behold renewed in identity, strengthened in faith, and inspired to pursue God’s calling with purpose and enthusiasm. This year’s theme: Behold Something New not only reflects the inaugural year but is intended to focus our hearts towards making this vision a
Reality. We believe that investing in youth is investing in the future of the Presbyterian Church in Canada. This retreat is one meaningful way to walk alongside them in their faith journeys. However, Behold High School Youth Retreat is open to all high school students, regardless of church affiliation.
Retreat Overview
- Four worship sessions with live music and a guest speaker
- Small Group discussions to dig deeper into the message with leaders and peers
- Morning Devotionals
- A variety of activities that encourage students to embrace God’s world through a new lens while promoting connecting with others and self reflection
- Leader specific sessions for connection and collaboration
Key Registration Information
Every high school student who wishes to attend this retreat is welcome. Churches are not required to provide adult leaders to accompany their students However, instead of having youth contact Behold and register on their own, we are asking churches to handle the registration process on their behalf. This allows us to communicate directly with church leaders, who can then share the information with their students.
Whether you are a church leader or a family member of a teen who would be interested in attending Behold this June, please reach out for more information: retreatbehold@gmail.com
