Wayumi Retreat
Join Us for an Unforgetable Experience
What is Wayumi? It’s a fun and fascinating retreat at which you will learn your role in God’s story! Through amazing storytelling and hands-on experiences, you’ll discover that a life on mission centers on the Great Commission, both overseas and right here at home.
Come with us to the Wayumi campus in the Allegheny Mountains of Pennsylvania. This retreat is open to families, singles and groups. Retreat fees (including meals at Wayumi) and transportation are already taken care of—that’s how important this experience is to the church!
At Wayumi, you’ll discover:
- How God can use you and your gifts to be part of His story here at home or overseas.
- The major obstacles to planting a church overseas (language and culture).
- The wide variety of gifts and abilities God uses to take the Gospel to the ends of the earth.
WCC’s next trip to Wayumi is May 5 to 7. We’d love for you to come along—and bring a friend! We hope to see you there!
Registration deadline is April 14.
If you cannot attend the May 5 to 7 retreat but have an interest in attending a future retreat, please contact Erica Hart.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does the retreat cost?
WCC views Wayumi as a foundational experience for the whole church. The church will cover all retreat costs (which includes the tasty meals during the retreat) as well as transportation costs.
I’m not really a “missions” person. Why should I go to Wayumi?
Wayumi has something for everyone. Participants will learn truths that are relevant in Warsaw IN, or Wantikia, PNG. You’ll also better understand the core story woven through the Bible, the Great Commission, and that we each have a vital role in spreading the Gospel to our neighbors and the nations.
Can I bring my kids to Wayumi?
Certainly! We have had 37 WCCers join us ranging in age from 8 to 67-years old. Wayumi’s teaching is full of great storytelling, visual aids, and interactive exercises lead by real missionaries. The teachers pull the kids into the learning along with the rest of the participants. Everyone seems to love the fun, the teaching, the interactive experiences, and the community! Please ask us if you have any questions.
Where is Wayumi?
The Wayumi campus is in Jersey Shore, Central Pennsylvania — set in the beautiful Allegheny Mountains. The church provides van transportation.
