Four days of faith, friendship & fun
The 2027 AHS Youth Retreat is coming June 1–4, 2027.
Youth spend the week together in small groups: making a splash at Splash Summit, hiking to Stewart Falls, competing at South Fork Park, exploring Thanksgiving Point, and finishing strong with a talent show, a youth dance, and a closing slideshow. Every day starts with devotionals and inspiring speakers and ends with time to reflect and share testimony together.
736 N. 1100 E., American Fork, UT 84003
