Thanks for serving your heart out this Spring Castaway! See you next Fall!
The Servant Leadership Team (SLT) consists of youth who help plan and lead retreats. They have a passion for Christ and for introducing Jesus to others through building relationships. These youth are from around Minnesota and serve first with their home church communities and have extended their service to youth attending different Side by Side retreats. To be on the Servant Leadership Team we ask youth to really commit to helping their home community and seek opportunities for growth in their home communities. These youth have a heart for service and love giving of themselves for Christ. SLT is geared for Sr. High Youth, grades 9-12.
