Life Teen Fall Retreat 2022

The Life Teen Fall Retreat's theme in 2022 is "Always Forward". Always Forward; it is not about the appearance of perfection but the weathering of faithful persistence. Christians are called onward through this pilgrim’s journey despite what may lie ahead. To be human is to have trials but to have faith is to endure them with hope — eyes fixed upon Christ no matter what may come. Consoled by Grace and strengthened by Truth, we refuse to be distracted by the winds of modern times or discouraged by the waves of persecution. Perhaps tired, perhaps wounded, yet we carry on, spiritually resilient. With each new sunrise, choosing to commit to the call of Christ, we go, always forward. The goal of “Always Forward” is to help teens commit to moving forward toward complete union with the Father — guided by the Holy Spirit — and understanding that Jesus accompanies them on this journey.
