AA Hope Youth Retreats have been such blessings every time. Students' hearts got changed  after retreat expeirences. Their commitment to Jesus and understanding of Jesus got into the new level after the retreat. Despite previous great blessings, I expect even greater blessings this retreat. Nothing says or looks that way. However, I would take that blessing becuase the best would yet to come. His kingdom needs to be 'forcefully' advanced in the midst of our youth group! 

Time: 4/17-19 at
Place: Nazarene Retreat center in Howell.
Speaker: John Kim

More detailed information will be posted later.
Please check back later. However it's never late to start praying for the event.

Prayer requests for the retreat: 

Pray that we would

1)  Worship with truth and spirit that can really heal  & touch each student
2) love each other & be united unity  b/c of Jesus' compelling love
3) Preparation and organziation be done with wisdom & humility  (Words, praise team, food prep, fellowship, other logistics,etc)

Mostly, pray that all those darkness forces that pull our students away from the light be cast away. Do battle for our students.

> Be able to receive the vision of Jesus to preach to the ends of the world and make disciples and teach what Jesus commanded.
 > Really enjoy each other, have fun, laugh a lot!
