Join us for an awesome one-night retreat for 4th and 5th graders at Timber-Lee Christian Camp in East Troy Wisconsin! We will have fun in the snow, great games, solid teaching and great worship music. Our theme this year is "Live Love". The love that God has for us is so different than the world's.
