It's a time to get away.  Leave the distractions of your life for a time to be still and hear God's voice.

It's a time to play.  Join us in the great outdoors (and indoors) for fun, games, and activities.

It's a time to grow.  Hear God's word taught in a fresh and dynamic way.  Take time to reflect on what God is teaching you.

It's a time to build community.  Meet new friends and deepen old friendships.  

Join us in scenic Ottauquechee Farms in the rolling hills of Vermont.  Enjoy a gorgeous camp surrounded by natural beauty, perfect for outdoor activities.  

Jeff Arthurs is a preaching professor at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.  His sermons are known for being biblical, dynamic, and interactive.  He will bring us a message on keeping our relationship with God fresh, including sessions on the power of God's word, the strength of friendship, the freedom of confession, and the voice of the Holy Spirit.

We'll meet at Gordon and Endicott campuses at 10:00 on Saturday, April 4th and start our caravan to Vermont.  Bring a bag lunch, or a few bucks since we'll stop for fast food along the way.  Once we get there, activities will include teaching sessions, ping pong, sledding (IF it's cold enough), air hockey, Frisbee, hanging out, group activities, reflection, and eating great food.  We'll get back to campus by 2:00 pm on Sunday.  There will be free time, and this is only a one night retreat--don't let homework keep you from this blessing!

Spring retreat will cost $30.00 per student and will include lodging, three meals, and excellent speaking and worship.  

We don't want anyone not to come because they can't afford it.  If you need a full or partial scholarship, you can let us know when you register.  Likewise, if you'd like to contribute a bit toward our scholarship fund, you can let us know when you register.  

The sooner you can RSVP, the better!  Please RSVP NO LATER THAN March 24, 2009.  Register here.
