2026 Young Adult Retreat: "Iron Sharpens Iron" October 16-17

 The annual Kalamazoo Fall Retreat for college- and career-aged young adults will be held October 16-17, 2026, at beautiful Gull Lake Ministries, D.V. The retreat will officially begin at 5:00 Friday afternoon and run through Saturday evening, with a number of substantive topics and discussion times planned. A full line-up of extra activities is available including pickleball, bowling, the traditional photo scavenger hunt, and much more. You may view the conference center online at gulllake.org. We have a limited number of beds, so reservations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. 

The cost for four delicious meals and one night of lodging is $150 (register before September to get the early bird price of $130)! Register using the form below. 

Note: We are looking into the possibility of an optional pre-conference topic session on Friday afternoon, with free time to enjoy the beautiful GLM grounds afterwards. Stay tuned!

 On Sunday, October 18, there will be a fellowship meal at noon at our church for all retreat attendees, as well as a singing and discussion time together after the evening service. 

Host families are available for those attending from out of state for Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings.
