Back to School Retreat

Use this retreat to get away with your group at the beginning of the school year. We recommend doing the retreat at an off-site facility like one of the Lutheran camps. The PDF includes activities, icebreakers, devotions, and Bible studies. It’s a great way to help youth get to know each other and to set the tone for a new school year!
