High school students from around the Great-Lakes Gulf presbytery, (and often the entire denomination,) gather for four days at the end of the year to participate in the Winter Conference. The students have opportunity to be challenged in their faith by a series of messages from a guest speaker and to build friendships and community. There are many different activities the students can take part in, including the Stress Challenge and the Theme Dinner. The Stress Challenge takes participants outdoors in cold weather for an afternoon of teamwork and testing. And the Theme Dinner is the opportunity to dress up and kick back for an evening of fun and games. Plan now to attend the next Winter Conference, and be ready to grow in your Christian faith! 3522 N 1000 W 27, Converse, IN 46919 Converse, Indiana Please arrange to be dropped off and picked up at: The Ark Christian Ministries Camp and Retreat Center 3522 N 1000 W 27 Converse, IN 46919 Drop off/Check-in: Wednesday, December 27 at 5:00pm Pick up*: Saturday, December 30 at 11:00am If your student is under 18, please print and complete the release form.
