NEW BEGINNINGS #78
Feb 27 - Mar 1, 2026
A Weekend to Grow, Belong, and Be Real
For middle schoolers (grades 6–8), New Beginnings is more than a break from routine. It’s a weekend to connect with others, ask big questions, and discover how God is already moving in their lives.
Led by high school students and adults from across our diocese, this retreat explores friendships, family, faith, and how it all fits together.
Bring your curiosity. Bring your questions. Leave with a deeper sense of who you are and who God is calling you to be. Participants can attend as many times as they’d like while in middle school.
​
Participant, Sponsor, and Team registration is $100.
