Calling all high school students (Grades 9–12)! Get ready for an unforgettable winter experience filled with faith, friendship, fun, and meaningful moments!

The Youth and Young Adult Ministry of the Serbian Orthodox Diocese of New Gracanica–Midwestern America invites you to the Winter Youth Retreat 2026 , taking place December 21–25, 2026, at Saint Sava Monastery in Libertyville, Illinois .

Take a break from school, homework, and your everyday routine to spend time with old friends, make new ones, and connect with other Orthodox teens who share your faith and values!

Throughout the retreat, you’ll have the opportunity to participate in inspiring discussions, prayer, fun activities, and plenty of time for fellowship and laughter. Together, we’ll explore what it means to live our Orthodox faith in today’s world, face everyday challenges with Christ at the center of our lives, and build friendships that last long after the retreat ends.
