Join us at the Fall Retreat! October 7-9, 2016
Finding a place to belong can be one of the most important and exhausting things you’ll do during college. Even Jesus, the God of the universe, experienced what we do – the difficulty of finding a place to belong. (He came to his own, but his own rejected him). Jesus has made an incredible offer to we who are the most desperate to find a place to call home. “Come and belong with me. Be adopted into my family.” Will come and belong with us this weekend?



New Life’s Fall Retreat is an awesome opportunity to get away from the day-to-day grind and experience a weekend filled with engaging teachings, dynamic worship, an epic flag football tournament, and lots of opportunities to make new friends. We’d love to have you join us!

Where are we going & how will I get there?
FaHoLo Campground is 30 minutes from Ypsi/Ann Arbor, and a about an hour and fifteen minutes from Detroit, depending on traffic. We will arrange rides and carpool together through New Life Teams. If you don’t know what New Life Team you are a part of, don’t worry! You’ll have a chance to indicate that on the registration form and we will find a spot for you! You will then get an email with carpool information the week of the retreat.
