PARENT/CHILD
Two different weekends packed with opportunities for Jr. High students to be challenged in their faith, deepen their friendships, and grow in community. These weekends are packed with amazing recreation, hillarious skits, captavating teaching, inspiring worship, and plenty of time for students to connect with their loving savior. We’d love to invite you as an individual or a youth group to come and join us for an excellent time!
P
Dads &Daughters
In a fast-paced society it takes effort to ease back and plan time with family members. Mount Hermon provides unique opportunities for parents and children to do just that — slow down and connect — while providing valuable direction and memorable experiences. Each weekend conference combines a relaxed setting with fun-filled activities, inspirational song and praise, bringing encouragement and direction through gifted communicators. The parent-child retreats are open to parents and their children grades 2 through 8. These are times you’ll treasure for years to come. Dads and Daughters is offered in Fall 2010, followed by Dads and Sonsin 2011, each combination offered on alternating years.
