What is a LOG weekend?
LOG is a peer-led youth weekend that focuses on affirmation, sharing, caring, and the love of God – an experience in intentional Christian community.
​
Each LOG weekend is planned by a team of high school students and adult advisors. The students invite their friends to attend and then lead the retreat for them.
​
LOG is a full weekend – not much free time or recreation – no time for homework etc. And it is a fun weekend – but the fun comes in the sense of community that grows very quickly and the depth of friendships that are formed by sharing these couple of days together.
We sing a lot – pray often – share and listen the most. The teenagers will hear 12 talks over the 48 hours of a LOG weekend. They cover a wide range of topics – all focused around what it means to be in relationship with God and how that makes a difference in one’s life.
The talks include such topics as …
-
Who Am I, and Why Am I Here?
-
Relationships: Family and Friends
-
Experiencing the Love of God
-
Pressures and Influences
-
Obstacles
-
Receiving and Responding to the Love of
-
Agape
-
Christian Community & Worship
-
Relationships: Dating & Loving
-
Caring For Others
-
Growing Closer to God
-
Keeping What You’ve Found
​
After each talk, there is an opportunity for the youth to sit with a small group of people (the same people all weekend) and discuss what was said in the talk and how it applies to their personal life.
​
Please understand that participants must stay for the entire weekend experience. If your child needs to leave for any reason (sports practice, choir concert, work etc) s/he should wait to attend the next LOG weekend.
​
Families and friends are invited and encouraged to attend our closing celebration on Sunday afternoon of the LOG weekend.
Youth leaders / pastors are welcome most any time during the weekend – please call to coordinate exact times before coming to event.
​
Following each LOG, participants are welcome to commit to serve on the Team and invite their friends to attend the next LOG weekend.
