A few of our teen boys spent the weekend at a retreat facilitated by former NFL player Fernando Velasco (@kidfromwrens).

Camp Lighthouse hosted the retreat, and Fernando and his team spent the weekend pouring into the teens. Hands-on financial literacy workshops, vision boards, goal setting, and mental health and wellness sessions, plus fishing, swimming, basketball, and late-night talks that made undeniable impacts. The car ride home was full of laughter and stories of unforgettable moments! 🛶🎣 🏕️
