Join us for a powerful weekend where faith meets action as we explore what it means to Do Good Better. Inspired by Galatians 6:20 — “Let us do good to all…” — this retreat invites us to live our faith out loud in a world that longs for compassion, courage, and creativity.

We’re thrilled to be joined by Pastor Emily Harkins of The Dwelling in Winston-Salem NC — a bold and inclusive church without walls that walks alongside people experiencing homelessness. Pastor Emily brings a deep passion for justice, community, and the kind of faith that shows up in real and radical ways.

This weekend is designed for middle and high school youth and includes worship, games, community building, speakers, and faith formations. Castaway Club is located near Detroit Lakes, MN. Reach out to Intern Rebecca Kjelland if you have questions.
