For a few of years now we have gone away together for the weekend at Scotts Head and had a blast!
Games, hanging out and loving God together - and it's coming up again real soon!
Friday 29th May 3pm to Sunday 31st of May 12pm
We will be staying at Scotts Head at the Christian Youth Centre.
You will be able to book for a cabin or a powered site OR an unpowered for a tent/caravan/campervan.
Food is included in your booking. Make sure to tell us any dietary requirements.
Program
Prepare as you would for a weekend away with friends and family, spending time with some brothers or sisters that you may not know very well just yet. Come with plans to do fun things… and invite people to join in! Ultimately, our hope is that this weekend would be a time of enjoying what we have together in Christ, as we express our belonging to the family of God. Ephesians 2:19 tells us that in Christ we “are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone.”
