Pillar: Becoming Pillars Retreat

Becoming Pillars Retreat 2026

If you’re a graduating high school senior, college student, or young adult in your twenties, we invite you to join us for our fourth annual Becoming Pillars Retreat. This weekend is designed to help young adults step away from the distractions of everyday life to grow in relationship with one another and learn what it truly means to be the church.

Throughout the weekend, we’ll spend time in acoustic worship, study Scripture together, and connect in Small Groups. Our teaching sessions will walk through the book of 2 Timothy, focusing on what it looks like to stand firm in the faith and live as faithful followers of Christ. Along with our group sessions, there will be plenty of time for rest, meaningful conversations, shared meals, and simply enjoying being together.

The retreat will take place at Longview Ranch, where we’ll stay for the entire weekend and share five meals together.
