    Who is invited?

    This getaway is for everyone ages 20-39.

    When is the getaway?

    We will kick off our getaway on Sunday evening, June 9th, and conclude on Wednesday morning, June 12th. 

    What will we do?

    The purpose of this getaway is to connect: connect with God, Jesus, your spouse, old friends and new friends.  We will spend time in prayer, worship and thoughtful discussion.  However, this is not your typical retreat. The mindset behind this getaway is vacation, so while we keep honoring Christ at the center of our lives, we also maintain a mentality of rest and play.  People are encouraged to explore the local eateries and attractions, and recharge at Wildbriar Lodge. 

    What will we eat?

    Breakfast and one additional meal will be provided each day.  Because this getaway is authenitic and fluid in nature, each person is responsible for one meal on their own on Monday and Tuesday. Young adults are encouraged to explore the local eateries for this meal. 

    Where will I sleep?

    The lodge has sixteen bedrooms.  Married couples will stay together, while singles of the same gender will stay together. Additionally, all of the rooms have a private bathroom. For a complete list of room breakdowns, visit the Wildbriar Lodge website

    How much does it cost?

    Thanks to the generosity of the General Conference, this three-night getaway is only $200/person! This includes lodging for three nights and two meals a day (breakfast + one additional meal). Kids are an additional $75/child. The $200 price ends April 30, so sign up soon! After April 30, the price for adults is $250 and $100 for kids. 

    Can I bring my kids?

    We love families! However, because the target age of this getaway is young adults, we encourage parents to relax with us while their children are cared for by grandparents, friends and family back home.  If you can't find childcare back home, children 2 and under are allowed.

    What nearby attractions are there?
