Confirmation Retreat

A District-wide Confirmation retreat will be held at Camp Michigamme tentatively scheduled for Friday April 27 and Saturday April 28. This will be an overnight event at Camp including 3 meals. Estimated cost for the event will be around $40. All churches are welcome to bring or send their confirmands to this event. Since we don't all conduct confirmation at the same age this will open to middle and high schoolers in order to fit with all our churches.

 

There will be a planning meeting at Gwinn UMC beginning at noon on Wednsday, February 1. All pastors and youth leaders are invited. Daily schedule will be based on what people would like covered during this retreat, so all input would be most welcome. If you are unable to attend but have input or ideas please contact Rev. Scott Lindenberg, District Coordinator of Youth Ministry, 906-486-4681.
