GTA Winter Retreat 2026

Theme: Guardians of Faith

“By the Holy Spirit who dwells within us, guard the good deposit entrusted to you.”

2 Timothy 1:14


What does it mean to guard the faith that we have graciously received from God?

We have been entrusted with a gift that not only has been given to us personally but also are tasked with sharing it with others. This gift made known to us through the proclamation of the Gospel is the greatest gift we have ever received, to know and believe the person and work of Jesus Christ. Our faith in God through Christ is something that we treasure above all else, and there are many things in this life that seek to challenge it. God has entrusted us with the message of the Gospel, which not only promises life and light to us but also to those who hear it. God is calling and encouraging us to protect and share this message.


Join us at Braeside Camp (Paris, ON) on February 14th-16th for a winter retreat as we meditate upon the beauty and transformational message of the Gospel and how that encourages us to be guardians of faith. This is for you If you want to get away from the city, enjoy nature, and slow down to make space for God! Look forward to lots of: worship, campus times, activities, getting deep into the Bible, campus time, rest, and fun.
