We're thrilled to announce that our upcoming Amped Summer Retreat to Realife Vero Beach has reached total capacity!
If you missed out on securing a spot, don't worry! We're keeping a waiting list for any potential openings. While we can't make any promises, we'll add names on a first-come, first-serve basis. If you'd like to be added to the waiting list, email Loren at lorenf@graceboca.org.
The cost for the summer retreat will be $425 per student. We know finances can sometimes be a concern, especially for families with multiple kiddos. We're here to support you in any way we can. Reach out if you need assistance, and we'll chat confidentially about your options.
We're committed to making this experience as accessible and rewarding as possible for all our awesome students!
Amped Bible Study | Sundays | 9:15 am | The Loft
The Amped Bible Study is a place where 6th through 12th graders can learn more about the Word of God, make new friends, and discover how a relationship with Jesus can help navigate being a preteen and teenager.

Amped 450 Prayer | Sundays | 4:50 pm | The Loft
Some of the most powerful and inspiring prayers come from youth! That's why we're adding the element of group prayer to our weekly gathering! Students in 6th through 12th grade will learn about the incredible things that happen when they praise God and humbly ask for His intervention through prayer. We'll also learn how to pray and lift one another up as a community. Amped 450 Prayer takes place every Sunday (that we have Amped gatherings) at 4:50 pm in The Loft. We hope to see you there!
