Briercrest Christian College and Seminary will be hosting its largest youth retreat, Youth Quake (YQ) for the long weekend on February 15-17 at its campus in Caronport.
The kick-off session will begin at 6 p.m. in the Hildebrand Chapel, and the weekend will continue with a variety of concerts, sessions, and events until Sunday at 11:30 a.m. Expect the weekend to be full of energy.
Briercrest says Youth Quake is designed to “look like a festival but feel like a retreat.”
"It feels like a retreat because we have one speaker, one worship band, and one theme that drives our teaching throughout all the main sessions. It is youth group focused where your group will stay together in our dorms and eat together in our dining hall,” said Briercrest.
“Also, after each main session you'll meet with your group for 'Youth Group Time' where you can discuss the message with your students and reconnect as a group. This lends itself to a common experience that brings people together and helps deepen relationships,” the college added.
Briercrest says while the retreat aspects provide so much, YQ is also much more than your average youth group retreat.
This year will include concerts from KB, North Point Inside Out, Caitie Hurst, and AC & Brady.
Up to 2,000 people from across the country are expected to be in attendance. Youth Quake promises to be an unforgettable weekend youth experience.
Youth Quake is now in its 56th year. The theme for this year’s event is "The Narrow."
