For Grades 3 – 6
Fortune Lake invites all current 3rd through 6th graders to our Sacred Waters Retreat April 4-5! Join us for a weekend of faith-building fun and a full schedule of camp favorites.
This year’s theme, “Sacred Waters,” will focus on baptism; what it is, why we do it, and what it means. Campers do not need to be baptized to come to this retreat! Our Bible Studies will take an accessible approach in hopes that everyone comes away with a better understanding of the radical promise that is Holy Baptism. The retreat will also include campfire worship, games, songs, outdoor play, and more! Our one-night retreats are a favorite with returning and first-time campers alike. The shortened experience is the perfect opportunity to visit camp and see old friends while enjoying some camp favorites as well as a chance to try things out before committing to the full week.
Campers may come as individuals, with friends, or with a group from their congregation. Fortune Lake is also excited to offer a training opportunity for adult youth leaders who attend the retreat. We highly encourage attendance of adult leaders and provide the option of staying in with the campers or staying in one of our lodges for an additional fee. Adults will experience the retreat alongside their youth and step out on Saturday morning to attend the training (see below).
Registration deadline for this retreat is March 28 at 11:59 pm CT.
Adult Leader Workshop Option:
April 5, 2025
9:00 am – 12:00 pm CST
A training opportunity for adult leaders who work with you (lay leaders, volunteers, pastors, etc.) will take place on Saturday morning and run in conjunction with the youth retreat. The topic has yet to be determined. Stay tuned for more information.
