Launched 2.0 2026

this changes everything

What happens when someone truly encounters Jesus? Everything changes.

At this year’s junior high retreat, students will explore the life-changing power of the gospel through our theme verse, 2 Corinthians 5:17:


“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”


Across three impactful sessions, students will discover: what it means to become a new creation in Christ, how a relationship with Jesus leads to a new way of living, and that they are called to make a difference in the world around them.  This retreat will help students see that following Jesus isn’t just about going to church or being a “good person” — it’s about letting Him completely reshape who we are. Through honest teaching, real conversations, and time in God's Word, students will be challenged to embrace the new life Jesus offers and discover how that changes everything.

  • Launched is an overnight JH retreat for all 6th-8th grade students and is hosted by TCC.  Students stay the night at TCC and have a great 24 hours of fun and Jesus!  All meals are provided for (Friday Dinner and 3 meals Saturday) along with activities like dodgeball, video game tournaments, screen games, rec time, snack shop, and more!  There is also a special activity that takes place on Saturday afternoon.  (2024 was a trip to Skyzone) The students will also have 3 sessions with worship, the Word, and small group time!

  • That is more than ok!  We understand that not all students may want to spend the night.  That is why we offer a no overnight option at sign up!  If you student doesn't want to spend the night, they can be picked up before bed time and dropped off the next morning before breakfast!  That way they can experience all of the fun and attend all of the sessions!
