Trailblazer Retreat
Strong Tower Ranch seeks to be a safe place where youth may experience refuge from the cares of the world and be strengthened, refreshed, and equipped. This 3-day, 3-night retreat for middle-schoolers ages 13 and 14 will provide intentional respite from every-day concerns and activities and allow them to delve deeper into Scripture through morning gatherings, extended worship sessions, and fireside devotionals.
They’ll also have extra time to develop community with peers, spend quiet time with Jesus, and be mentored by an overnight team of Spirit-equipped adults 18 and over. All of this will be wrapped in the traditional fun and engaging camp activities with some special, new, middle school-only additions.
