Cloud 9 Splash

Welcome

[Cloud 9 2007 is scheduled October 26-28, 2007 @ Michindoh Retreat Center]

We have scheduled Cloud 9 2007 is scheduled for October 26-28, 2007 at Michindoh Retreat Center in Hillsdale, MI. The retreat is designed to stoke the fire that fuels our furnace and to provide a framework for students to embrace the intimacy of the Father’s heart , which provides the inner motivation that makes Christianity an inside-out experience. Within this framework students will gain practical skills for hearing his voice, and recognizing those promptings from the Spirit that open the door to God’s extravagant grace.

In all our retreats we want to focus specifically on the kingdom type of living that Jesus came to illustrate for us in our lives. Of course we're also very excited about the incredible opportunity that this retreat provides for our students to passionately worship God until their legs grow weary beneath them.

The retreat kicks off on Friday night; workshops, free time, and a concert are sandwiched by sessions (including worship and prayer ministry) Saturday morning and evening, and the retreat closes with a celebration on Sunday morning. The cost of this year’s event is $99 per person. This cost includes lodging, an event t-shirt, snacks on Friday evening, meals on Saturday, Sunday morning. You can purchase additional meals on Friday evening or Sunday afternoon for $5 per person/meal. Each retreat follows a basic schedule of events for activities, sessions, free time, and meals. Registration will open August 1st and run through October 12th.

This retreat is open to any youth group and all teens between 6th and 12th grade. If you know of any group that would like to participate, please send them to this website or notify us and we will send them a Cloud 9 Group Registration Packet. The upcoming retreat will be limited to 550 participants, so register your group as soon as possible. If you have any questions or need more information feel free to contact us at registration @ cloud9retreat.com anytime.

Once again, our hope is that students will experience several things at this retreat:

  1. We want students to reap the encouragement that comes from meeting hundreds of students who share a similar church/spiritual background
  2. We want to place students directly under the outpouring of God's spirit. We expect that most students will be seriously strengthened and refreshed.
  3. We want to challenge students to live lives worthy of their calling in Christ Jesus.
