Interested in becoming a young man of God? In many cultures around the world and in centuries past in our own culture, there were rites of passage. These were intentional experiences that helped shape a boy’s future forever. Through weekend camping events, experiential challenges, and honest teachings about what a young man of God looks like, we will provide initiation rites and the opportunity for a boy to receive the message, “You’ve got what it takes to become a young man of God.”
Secret recipes, beauty tips, remedies for every sort of ailment, and so much more have been passed from mother to daughter for generations. In addition to these great secrets, there exists the most precious secrets of all . . . ancient spiritual truths about becoming a young woman of God. These secret truths will be passed on during fun weekend trips where you are bound to come back with new spiritual truths in your heart and new friends by your side!
Join thousands of others for a power-packed weekend of worship, teaching, and fun put on by Christ in Youth. If you enjoy loud music, funny videos, inspirational speaking, ordering late night pizza to your hotel room, and being challenged in serious ways to follow Christ, then this is the weekend for you!
This 5-day service trip amplifies the call of God’s heart on students to love their neighbors. Know Sweat wants every student to be in tune with the heart of God and His love for people.
