St. Michael’s Conference Midwest |
|
Located in Michigan and currently held at Manresa Retreat Center in Bloomfield Hills, just outside of Detroit, St. Michael’s Conference for Youth Midwest offers one of the finest Christian formation programs anywhere. Sprung from its sister conference in Massachusetts, St. Mike’s Midwest is designed to serve youth aged 12-21. The conference follows a traditional program of prayer, heart-felt worship, solid education in Christianity which is orthodox, catholic and evangelical, an exhilarating mix of rollicking fun, good food and fellowship.
Here’s what teens who recently attended St. Michael’s would like to say to others about their experience:
“Everyone has fun. No matter what, we are there for each other!”
“The fun-est, best, most interesting place on Earth. Better than Six Flags!”
“It’s like a spiritual booster shot, a great opportunity to learn and grow in your faith with God.”
“Wow! It is the best part of summer!”
“It’s the best place ever! You will love it!”
“It is one of the things I’m most thankful for in my life!”
“A wonderful experience and all people should give it a chance because it’s not ‘just another church camp.”
“….the fun-est, craziest, wildest Christian place you’ll ever go!”
“I came indifferent. I left inspired!”
“Go for you!”
“It will change the way you look at God.”
“An experience you’ll remember for the rest of your life!”
It is the best place to come for spiritual growth. I have made many friendships here that I will keep for years to come.
