All the United Churches in Saskatchewan are gathering to connect with each other, discuss current issues, and make decisions about the future of the church… and the youth will be a part of it! Come and join us for 4 days in Prince Albert for an awesome time to learn about how the church works, get to know youth from other parts of the province, and reconnect with friends you’ve already met. We’ll be spending time as part of the conference and then also breaking off into our own youth-only time, including a trip to beautiful Camp Christopher on Saturday afternoon, sleepovers and games at Calvary United Church every night, and attending the Heart of the Youth Powwow on Friday.
We can’t wait to see you there!
We will be sleeping on the floor at Calvary United Church in Prince Albert, and carpooling over to the event at the Exhibition Centre for the meetings. We will head out to Camp Christopher on Christopher Lake on Saturday afternoon, which is about 50 km north of PA. Youth participants are not permitted to drive their own vehicles during the event – rides will be arranged.
The Regional Council event starts for all participants at 2 pm on Thursday the 25th, but the youth will gather at the Exhibition Centre at 1 pm to check in and meet each other before things get started. Everything wraps up on Sunday at noon once the Service of Praise is finished at Calvary United Church.
Meals and snacks for Thursday afternoon, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday morning will all be included in the registration fee.
