Fall Retreat registration is open and we are excited for this opportunity for our teens! This is a time where the teens connect with each other and their leaders and that momentum carries us through the fall. This year’s theme is Pouring out, based on Psalm 62:8, “Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.” If after reading the information below you have any questions, reach out to jessica.coulter@thevalley.church.
