Youth Bear Witness at Camp Mikell Retreat

August 21, 2023

St. Matthews youth had their annual retreat at Camp Mikell, and it was amazing! The weather was hot, but the kids enjoyed learning about this year’s youth ministry theme, “Witness.” It is a noun for a person who sees an event take place, but it is also a verb – To profess Christ and proclaim Him. The group did Bible lessons on bearing witness and learned about the great commission and how they can bear witness and be witnesses in today’s world. Many thanks to our ministry leaders, adult chaperones, and program leaders, Jessie Hurst and Caroline Bowen, for making the weekend retreat successful.
