Jr. Youth will be heading up to Camp Crossroads this year for their annual Deep Freeze Winter Retreat! Deep Freeze is a weekend retreat planned specifically for Jr High youth groups – that means lots of action in the snow, great food, dynamic chapel speakers and a full worship band – all to encourage the youth in their walk with Christ. We are looking forward to an exciting weekend together where we can spend time with each other and have LOTS of fun!
