IDE’s Youth Committee’s Goal: Provide opportunities and resources continually to the congregations of Iowa District East in the development of local programs.
We have been planning or helping plan the activities for the next few events and are excited about what is being offered. The 5th & 6th Grade Retreat has always been well received and the activities and fellowship help our youth meet other Christians in our district. Swimming and bowling have been a great source of fun in the past. Along with the activities we always have included a chance to learn about God by delving into his word.
The Senior High Retreat will still be at Camp Io-Dis-E-Ca but the date has changed. As we look at the events each year we try to keep some of the same. However, we also like to look at what we can do to make the event something that will keep the youth wanting more. We are excited about the changes we are making. Hope to see you there.
