Rise Up Florida with Lost & Found High School Youth Event

Rise Up Florida High School Retreat November 6-8, 2015 Word of Life Retreat Center Hudson, Florida Join us as we welcome the band Lost & Found to join us for Rise Up Florida as one of their last stops on their farewell tour. This event is for both those who attended the Gathering and for those who were not able to attend. It will equip and re-ignite those who were at the Gathering to "bring the Gathering home" and to provide a feel of the Gathering to those who were not able to be there. Utilizing some of the resources, video and music from the Gathering and adding in some of our own, we will encourage youth to examine their story and the story of their community and congregation and to explore how God might be calling them to tell His story and affect change where they see injustice. Our time together will include: * Large Group Sessions * Congregational Small Groups * Large Group Games * Campfire * Climbing Wall * Zip Line * Heated Pool * Water Slide * Music with Lost & Found and so much more! Your registration fee includes meals (dinner on Friday night, 3 meals on Saturday and breakfast and lunch on Sunday), event t-shirt, climbing wall/zip line and all program costs for the weekend. Participants will be housed in cabins. Each side of a cabin sleeps 12-14 and each side shares bathrooms/showers. Each congregation must send at least 1 adult for every 8 youth of the same sex.
