VINEYARD WINTER RETREAT

February 14 – 16

Our Winter Retreat is a highlight of the year—a weekend set apart for students to unplug from daily rhythms, deepen relationships, and grow in their faith. This year, we'll be heading to Camp Ladore in Waymart, PA and are expecting to meet around 400–500 middle school and high school students from across the northeast.

We expect this to be an incredibly impactful experience for our youth—an opportunity to step outside the city, have fun, build deeper relationships with peers and leaders, and most importantly, encounter God in a fresh and meaningful way!

WELCOME TO ROOTS

Charlie Seminario-Burns
Youth Director 

Our goal is to see the youth of our city thrive. We believe that happens when they have identity and purpose in Jesus. Our aim is to provide a fun and engaging space for every teen to flourish while doing life with each other.

Feel free to send me an email if you have any questions.

So, what happens at a Roots night?

We meet every other Wednesday at 6:30pm to hang out, connect, and walk together in our journey of faith.

We gather and spend some quality time catching up on our week.

Get to know one another

"Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness.”

- Colossians 2:7 (NLT)
