Young Adults Retreats

Unplug and Connect

Registration Is Open!

Overview

These retreats are for young adults aged 18-30. We bring together like-minded individuals and groups from all over the West Coast (and beyond) to unite for a long weekend of amazing activities, great speakers, fantastic music, and more coffee and food than you’ll know what to do with. Join in the many activities of camp or if you’d rather simply hang out with friends and meet some new people we’ve got plenty of space for that as well.

So come reconnect with your friends and rekindle your relationship with God in a place free of distractions and surrounded by His creation.

IMPORTANT
Some older mapping services will suggest you take the 245. It is a curvy, winding road that will take you at least an additional hour. DO NOT take 245!

Check in starts at 3:00 PM the first day of the retreat.

You need to be checked out of your lodging by 11:00 AM the last day of the retreat.

We provide:

Dinner the first day of the retreat

All meals each full day of the retreat

Breakfast and lunch the last day of the retreat

We do not offer free guest WiFi at this point in time. We do offer Internet for a fee; however, the speeds here are not fast. Purchase at your own risk.

 If and when you are needing to cancel any spots, it will forfeit the full deposit per spot for what the deposit is at the time of cancellation.

At this time, we do not have an electric charging station at Hume or outlets available for charging vehicles. We encourage you to fully charge your electric vehicle before heading up the mountain.

We want our retreats to be accessible to everyone! To help make this possible, Hume can accommodate gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and vegetarian diets. Because of the high cost of providing for dietary restrictions, there is an extra surcharge for these special diets. Please refer to our Dietary Restrictions Policy for more information.

Chris Hilken

Speaker

Dr. Chris Hilken is the Senior Pastor of College Avenue Church in San Diego. He also serves as a professor of theology, training future leaders to think clearly, biblically, and critically in a confused age. Chris collaborates with the Dad Tired podcast, engaging honest conversations surrounding masculinity and Christian fatherhood. Shaped by a heartbreaking story of grief and loss, he is known for clear, direct teaching, biblical depth, and unfiltered realism.

Rachel Closs

Speaker

Rachel Closs sees her life as “but a breath,” and with that one breath of a life she desires to know more of God’s love and to make Christ’s name known to those around her to the ends of the earth. After serving at Hume Lake Christian Camps for almost a decade, she left the ministry there to pursue planting a church and translating the Bible in Papua New Guinea with Ethnos360.

College Ave Music

Worship

College Ave Music is the worship expression of College Ave Church in San Diego, CA. Our passion is to write and share songs that help people see Jesus rightly, love Him deeply, and follow Him faithfully. Through honest lyrics and biblical truth, we seek to create music that provides fresh language for connecting with the Father. At the end of the day, we’re just a group of friends who long to see people encounter Jesus and respond by giving Him the praise He deserves.

Marra Music

Band

Based on Ephesians 5:1-2, Marra Music is a collective who came together with one desire, and that is to lead in a purity of worship where we can come honestly, encountering the living God and offering Him fragrant offerings. Guided by the Holy Spirit, their hope is to create a space for the Lord to move in our hearts and lives as we worship Him through music.
