CS-Fall Retreat!
Fall Retreat 2025 is almost here!
We can’t wait to take students to Camp ToKnowHim—just a little over an hour from City Church—for an unforgettable weekend together!
Fall Retreat is full of fun, games, building new friendships, and enjoying great food. Most importantly, it’s a time for students to grow in their faith and experience powerful moments with God.
Retreat Theme: FUEL
This year our theme is “Fuel”—because what we fill our lives with matters. We’ll be looking at the story of Gideon in the Bible and how God gave him the courage, strength, and faith he needed when he felt the weakest. Just like Gideon, students will be challenged to see how God can fuel their lives with purpose and power.
Dates: October 17–19, 2025
Cost: $125 per student (lock it in now!)
After signing up, you’ll receive a confirmation email with important details.

Parent Child Dedication is on May 11th
