Why come to Rejuvenate?
As a young person, you may be looking ahead, wondering what your future will hold. You may be faced with decisions about what path to take, whether that is for work, study, or other areas of your life. Do you ever just wish you knew what the ‘right’ thing to do was? Or what to do next? Or do you feel you are constantly told what you should do, but feel like there has to be something more?
Rejuvenate is a time for us to withdraw from the pressures of everyday life and learn from Christ; to find rest that we can carry with us, and to remember that His yoke is easy, not a burden.
So come away with us, be still before the Lord, let Him strengthen you. Come, let us build one another up to impact this world for Christ – let us be spiritually ‘Rejuvenated!’
Jesus said to his disciples: “Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat. And they went away in the boat to a desolate place by themselves. – Mark 6:31
