PRAYER ROOM-- The Prayer Room is available throughout the weekend as a place where youth and adults can go to pray and reflect on their spiritual journey and leave prayer request at the cross.

SMALL GROUP DEVOTIONALS will be available for your youth group. A crucial aspect of the Youth Retreat ROCK 2012 is its dedication to bringing youth into a greater understanding of, and a relationship with, our ROCK Jesus Christ. For this reason we have built into the schedule small group devotion times for members of your group to share together their experiences, feelings and revelations from each of the four sessions of the retreat. Take the opportunity each time it is scheduled to find a location that is conducive for your group to discuss and share scriptures and devotion questions. The are suggestions only. Use or change any and all of them to suit the needs of your group. You will notice that there is not time built into the schedule for small group devotions on Sunday. Please take the time prior to checking out, or while returning home, to discuss devotion questions for the last day with your youth, in addition to reviewing the whole retreat experience. The message at each session may be the most important part of the retreat for many youth. For this reason we ask that you have your youth present and seated during the message at all four sessions. Sample prayers for Saturday night will be available for the Rock Retreat. Use them with your youth who are for the first time committing their life to Christ or for those are renewing or deepening their commitment. Remember these are only suggestions. You are welcome to generate your own. Sample prayers will be available for download soon.
