The Beginning
During a Southwest Texas Conference Youth Council meeting in the Spring of 2006, a couple of student leaders dreamed up having a dedicated retreat for those serious about growing in Christ. After much discussion and planning, the entire group agreed and Dive N Deeper (DND) began to take shape.
The Purpose
DND is for those students who have been identified by their pastor and youth director as leaders in their church, youth group, and conference events. DND is intended to build up the student leader in faith, hope, and love.
The Design
DND beings at 6 PM Friday, and concludes at noon on Sunday. The event is limited to 60 people, and will include intense Bible study, clergy-led small groups, powerful worship, as well as time for reflection, solitude and renewal.
The Target
DND is for students ages 15 to 21 who want to grow more in their relationship with God and in becoming a Christian leader in the world.
The Cost
DND costs $75 per student, $50 per staff. Scholarship assistance is available through contacting the Office of Youth Ministry 210.408.4510. Refunds are for emergencies only and exclude a $10 processing fee. Registration. Deadline is 10 working days prior to start of camp.
