Our high school seniors have been putting together and fantastic retreat getaway at the Ark Christian Ministry in Converse, IN. This will be a fun time of playing games, team building, hearing senior testimonies, sitting by the bonfire, building fun friendships with each other, playing on the giant swing, and most of all drawing closer to God and making memories. This is open to all 6-12th grade students. 

The cost is $70

WILDERNESS TRAIL

July 25-30 ● 6-12th grade students

SIGN UP TODAY! (Only 4 girls spots and 1 guys spot remains!) Open to 6-12th grade students! 

This is a week long spiritual adventure in the wilderness of Virginia! No experience is needed and Trail provides most of the gear you'll need. It's hard to describe what an amazing time this is, you just have to give it a try and experience it for yourself. If you have any sense of adventure, I think you'll love it! 

Registration: Email Matt to sign up and get more info: msherrill@carmelumc.org 

We have confirmation experience for 6-8th grade students. Students can participate and join in any and all of our CX6-8 years and our hope is to have students participate for all three years. Our hope is to really pour into students, give them meaningful experiences that bring the teachings of scripture to life in fun ways, and to send them out with weekly exercises and challenges to live out their faith daily. Contact Matt if you would like more information. msherrill@carmelumc.org

COVID POLICIES: 

We are doing everything we can to keep people safe and be able to still meet in person for as long as possible because we know how much better that is for everyone. We will need your help to make sure that we are not making things worse by spreading this virus, which can and does often appear  as asymptomatic in students.  Please Note: procedures and protocols are subject to change as the governing authorities and county health officials provide updated guidance. We appreciate your grace, understanding, and flexibility in these challenging times. With that said, listed below will be mandatory safety protocols and clear expectations regarding youth ministry for the fall semester in order to attend in person. :

For the health and safety of all students and leaders – parents are required to assist their children with a self screening for COVID-19 symptoms and fever before arriving to intersect, small groups, etc. 

If anyone in your family is exposed to or tests positive for COVID-19, please keep your child home until there is either a negative test result or the two-week limit after exposure has passed without symptoms.  

We recommend students eat dinner prior to arriving. If snacks and drinks are provided, we are recommending they be pre-packaged.  

Students are required to wear masks. We also ask them to wear masks when social distancing is not possible. When outside, there will be times where masks can be removed when we can ensure distancing can be maintained.
