winter retreat

At CranHill Winter Youth Retreats, we'll experience an exciting array of winter activities for you to enjoy. Create unforgettable memories as you race down their three thrilling sledding hills, engage in epic archery tag battles, venture into the serene winter landscape with snowshoeing, conquer the ice wall, or embrace some friendly competition in a broomball tournament! For those seeking an extra adventure, they also provide

horseback trail rides at an additional cost.  But the fun doesn't pause when it's time for chapel. They'll kick things off with entertaining games, followed by a captivating worship and teaching session designed to help our students draw closer to God.


For each retreat, we will meet at the church at 6pm for departure on Friday evening (transportation arrangements can be made for students with sporting events) and we will return around 12:30pm on Sunday.


Scholarships are issued on an as needed basis, please do not let the cost of the retreat be the reason your student doesn't attend!

Engage apologetics conference 2025


“In a world of competing values and views on reality, it is crucial for God’s people to understand the timeless truth of the Christian faith and why this beautiful truth can be trusted,” said HU Campus Pastor Mark Vincenti. “1 Peter 3:15 says, ‘...Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.’ The 2025 Engage Apologetics Conference at Huntington University aims to inspire and equip you to be a wise and winsome witness for Christ to a world that desperately needs the truth of the Gospel.”


We're taking a group of high school students to Huntington University on February 7th for the conference.  The cost of the conference is $75/person and that covers transportation, conference fee, hotel, and all meals.  Scholarships are available upon request.
