Higher Ground - Extreme Faith Middle School Retreat is a Catholic youth program for those who have completed sixth, seventh, or eighth grade in the spring of 2022. At Higher Ground - Extreme Faith, participants gather in an informal atmosphere to have a lot of fun. The group is encouraged to experience the joy of playing, praying, and working together as a community of faith. They are inspired to reflect on their initiation into the Church at their baptism and our continued call to actively participate in the church that we belong to; locally and globally. This program is sponsored by the Diocese of Grand Island's Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministry. The week begins Sunday afternoon and ends early afternoon on the following Thursday. Participants are required to stay the entire week with the exception of an emergency.
The 2022 registration cost for Higher Ground - Extreme Faith(HGXF) is $325 with an early bird rate of $295 through Feb 28, 2022, and a late registration rate of $375 after May 15, 2022.
