Dear Friends, I hope this quick note find you well! We are approaching busy times in the Spring for both Conference and District programming. I wanted to share a few opportunties with you in hopes that they will be beneficial to the youth that you work with! The Seattle United Methodist Youth Team (SUMYT) has finished work on their annual Spring Retreat at Indianola to be held March 14-16, 2008. They would like to extend an invitation to all the youth (Jr. & Sr. High) of the Conference to join them for this excellent retreat. Their theme this year is the Gospel According to Disney and Lyda Barr from Snohomish UMC is delivering the Keynote. The registration materials and more information is available by clicking here. Another event that is right around the corner is the Empowering You Retreat. The Empowering event this year will focus on providing leadership skills and training to BOTH Youth and Adult Leaders. Recognizing that many Youth Leaders cannot do another overnight, the YOUTH LEADER TRAINING is also available as a Saturday afternoon option. I hope that you will seriously consider this opportunity to gather together and learn. More info is available by clicking here. The two remaining Middle School/Jr. High Retreats are rapidly approaching. The Conference Youth Team has worked really hard on these this year so I know it will be a great experience for your youth. Please let me know if there is anyway I can help you to get your kids to these events. The registration info is available here by clicking here. Last but not least, the registation materials are available for the First Annual Young Adult Retreat to be held this year at Lazy F Camp on March 7-9. We have worked hard with the camp to keep the costs as low as possible. Additionally we have scholarships for students to bring the price down even more. We are also planning to be young family-friendly by having some childcare at the camp. I hope you will share this opportunity with some of the young adults you know. The registration materials are available by clicking here. Peace, Patrick Scriven
