This summer every friday for six weeks Orchard Church will be hosting WE '07. Each experience will be a day long trip into the wilderness of Northern California with a different activity planned for each trip. All of the experiences are designed to help youth learn more about themselves, the world around them and God, the creator of it all. As we push ourselves with each new and exciting activity our hope is that God will allow for opportunities within each of us to stretch ourselves and grow.

This is a great opportunity to meet new people, make new friends, and truly discover the awesome power that God has instilled in His creation (that includes us!)
