In our society and in our lives, we realize the reality of loneliness all around us. Yet God made us to be in relationship with one another. February 21-23, 2025 we gather to reflect on and grow in the theme “God of Relationship: We are never alone in Christ.” We look to spend time together in the Word and in Christian fellowship growing in the joy that we have in Christ and in our capacity to share that joy with so many others who are lost in loneliness. Indeed we are never alone in Christ!

The retreat is located at Camp Christian Retreat Center in Gordon, GA. We will gather with other college students from the region (for example, Auburn and Florida State) beginning Friday night and concluding Sunday morning. Friday night the different college groups will arrive. We will eat dinner and get to know each other along with kicking off the theme for the weekend. Saturday we will have three sessions of study focused on our theme along with time for games and outdoor activities. Sunday morning there will be a worship service prior to departure.

The Palm Sunday service is March 24 at 10:30am. We begin outside and process into the sanctuary with Palms remember our Lord’s entry into Jerusalem.

The Maundy Thursday service is March 28 at 7:00pm. In this service, we are reminded of the night when Jesus was betrayed and the institution of the gift of Holy Communion. We celebrate His gift of His Body and His Blood given and shed for us for the forgiveness of our sins. Following Holy Communion, we see the altar area stripped of its elements by twelve from the congregation as we remember the disciples betrayal and abandonment of our Lord. We leave the sanctuary in silence.

The Good Friday service is March 29 at 7:00pm. It really is a continuation of the Maundy Thursday service as the story of Jesus passion continues to unfold. On Good Friday we hear the account of Jesus’ passion that takes Him to the cross. During the service, with each reading, the sanctuary darkens as we remember the weight of our sins that darkened that day and sent our Lord to His humiliating death, the death that was glorious and gives us life and salvation.

The Easter Vigil service is March 30 at 8:30pm. We begin the service outside in the darkness by a fire. From that fire the Christ candle is lit and we in turn light our candles off of the Christ candle. We are reminded that our light comes from the Light of Christ as he leads us forward in His name. Then we hear seven readings from the Scriptures as we remember God’s promises and faithfulness through the Old Testament. After the service of the readings, we remember our baptisms and the joy that we are connected to Christ. Then we have the service of prayer as we await the announcement of the resurrection. Following the service of prayer, the Easter proclamation of victory over death is announced and the darkness turns to light and we celebrate the victory with the services of the Word and Holy Communion. The service encapsulates the beautiful of Christ’s victory over sin and death for us and the transition from death to life it means for our lives of faith.

The Easter Sunday service is March 31 at 10:30am. This service is a festival service in which we celebrate Jesus’ resurrection. Death has been defeated and we live new lives in Jesus’ name.

During the Lenten season we have midweek worship services on Wednesday at 7pm. This season we are growing in our journey of discipleship as we consider those who have gone before us in the faith: David, Joseph, Moses, Joshua and Caleb, Jonah, and Elijah. Each week we reflect on the confidence we have in the Lord who leads us even as He led these major figures of the faith. We look forward to the journey with you.
