Welcome Message
Welcome to Our Youth Retreat In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, we joyfully welcome you to this year’s Youth Retreat organized by The Apostolic Church Youth Ministry.
This is more than just a gathering — it is a time of renewal, fellowship, and encounter with God. Over these days, we will worship together, learn together, and grow together as one family in Christ.
Our prayer is that every heart will be refreshed, every vision renewed, and every life transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Welcome, beloved youth! Let us open our hearts and allow God to do something new in us.
“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles.” – Isaiah 40:31

Hymns
Showers of Blessings
There shall be showers of blessing:
This is the promise of love;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
Sent from the Savior above.
Refrain:
Showers of blessing,
Showers of blessing we need:
Mercy-drops round us are falling,
But for the showers we plead.
2 There shall be showers of blessing,
Precious reviving again;
Over the hills and the valleys,
Sound of abundance of rain. [Refrain]
3 There shall be showers of blessing:
Send them upon us, O Lord;
Grant to us now a refreshing,
Come and now honor Thy Word. [Refrain]
4 There shall be showers of blessing:
Oh, that today they might fall,
Now as to God we're confessing,
Now as on Jesus we call! [Refrain]
Standing on The Promises
1 Standing on the promises of Christ, my King!
Through eternal ages let His praises ring.
"Glory in the highest!" I will shout and sing,
standing on the promises of God.
Refrain:
Standing, standing,
standing on the promises of God, my Savior;
standing, standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.
2 Standing on the promises that cannot fail!
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,
by the living Word of God I shall prevail,
standing on the promises of God. [Refrain]
3 Standing on the promises, I now can see
perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;
standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,
standing on the promises of God. [Refrain]
4 Standing on the promises of Christ, the Lord,
bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,
overcoming daily with the Spirit’s Sword,
standing on the promises of God. [Refrain]
5 Standing on the promises I cannot fall,
list'ning ev'ry moment to the Spirit’s call,
resting in my Savior as my all in all,
standing on the promises of God. [Refrain]
