This year marks our 12th youth retreat and we are excited to see what God will do in our 2026 youth retreat: “ELEVATE!” We believe God is leading us to elevate our relationship with Jesus Christ - drawing us near to the rock that is higher than us.

In a world filled with despair, we call to Him - the only one who can elevate us to a place a peace, rest and everlasting love.

Our goal is to unite youth from the southeast and all over the country to exalt His name with one voice. It is our prayer that at ELEVATE 2026, our youth will join together and call on the name above any other name - Jesus Christ.

We pray that they reaffirm their identify in Jesus Christ and allow themselves to be used by God to be the Movement of good for this generation.

We hope that you will join us.

“from the end of the earth I call to you when my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I” - Psalms 61:2
