COMING SOON! YOUTH RETREAT
We are so excited to be able to have our Overflow youth retreat from February 23-25 at the Heartland Retreat Center in Marengo, Ohio! The retreat provides an opportunity for students to get away from their daily routine and focus on their relationships with God and others. Over the years, many students point back to a youth retreat as a turning point in their relationship with God. In addition to deepening their connection with God, the retreats provide an opportunity to deepen connections with others within the group. I often tell parents that if their students could only attend one event each year, this would be the one to attend! It is the best event that we offer as a youth group. Although both groups will be attending the retreat, we have separate speakers for our Jr. High and High School groups. Here is some information about our speakers for this year:
Tyler Morgan will be our Jr. High speaker. Tyler grew up in Lewis Center, Ohio and graduated from Huntington University with a degree in Communications and Youth Ministry. Tyler serves as the High School Minister at Jersey Church in New Albany, Ohio.
Craig and Jeanna McElroy will lead our High School group as we look at relationships through a Biblical framework. Craig grew up in Pickerington and studied biochemistry at OSU. He is the VP of Pharmacokinetics at InfinixBio. Jeanna is from Reynoldsburg, and she studied sociology and psychology at Wittenberg University. She serves as the owner and Certified Geriatric Care Manager at Senior Support Services, LLC. Craig and Jeanna are presenters with Marriage Enrichment, and they have led several marriage classes at Violet.
