Swedenborg: Envisioning the Future

Indigenous People’s Day Fall Youth Retreat Registration Open!
2024 Theme: “Buried Treasure, Hidden Gems, and Heavenly Secrets.” At this retreat we will uncover divine truths and messages that help us on our path. It’s an opportunity to share collected wisdom that feels spiritually resident to you throughout your life. Emanual Swedenborg has his heavenly secrets, so let’s start expanding our own personal journey (or journal) of heavenly secrets. This is a retreat where we will encourage looking a little harder to find the hidden gems or divine omens that steer our way. In short, how providence works in our lives for the best possible outcome.
For ages 13 – 18. Personal items, clothes for warm and cool weather, musical instruments, and a friend! At our retreats we offer life skills and spiritual sessions based on the principles of the Swedenborgian Church. We strive for a safe, secure, and inclusive environment to discuss and share relevant and meaningful ideas that help with challenges youth face today.
