Hey Students! Let's face it, the world can be a puzzling place. From increasing feelings of anxiety to that sense of isolation, it sometimes feels like an uphill battle. We've all been there, trying to find a distraction or searching for answers to calm our restless hearts. But did you know the Bible speaks to this very struggle?

This winter, we're diving deep into the book of Ecclesiastes, a raw and honest look at life's challenges. We'll explore the true meaning of life, beyond the fleeting distractions. Ecclesiastes 12:13 tells us to "fear God and obey Him." Together, we'll uncover what this means and how, in the midst of doubt and uncertainty, we can find purpose and joy through Him.

And here's the exciting part! We'll be soaking in the wisdom of Ecclesiastes surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of Hume SoCal in Big Bear, CA. Nestled in the mountains, Hume SoCal offers an unforgettable camp experience filled with vibrant worship, deep-rooted discipleship, and a myriad of outdoor activities. From lake recreation and sports tournaments to themed meals and late-night games, it's more than just camp—it's a pivotal spiritual retreat.

All this transformative experience comes at a cost of just $399 per student, an all-inclusive package that covers camp, fun activities, and transportation. Join us, as we blend fun, faith, and friendship in the serene backdrop of Hume SoCal. Trust us, you won't want to miss out!
