Zeteo 2025
January 31 – February 2nd, 2025
Manheim, PA
Zeteo is a greek word which means “to seek in order to find.” Our annual winter retreat for youth groups and families is a place where, together, we seek and find the Lord. Every winter, groups gather with us in Manheim, PA at The Junction Center, for a Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday evening, and Sunday morning session! Sessions include worship, a guest speaker, and a full-length, original, drama that unfolds during each session. Every year features a new cast and drama theme…one we feel God leading us to share. Zeteo 2025 is going to be EXCITING, and we can’t wait to share the drama theme soon! Check out the FAQs below and get your tickets, starting on September 1st.
What does it mean to be bold? Is it telling the truth when the old lie is easy? Being honest when the silence feels safe. Is it loud, convincing the rabbles and crowds? Or a quiet prayer, grateful for the air we breathe. Is courage really the absence of fear or doing the thing the fear told you not to? Forgiving someone who lied, betrayed, and wronged you. Bold is giving more and keeping less, being generous when there is little left. Bold is seeing the plank in your own eye and doing something about it. Bold is reaching for a friend, understanding when you’re the one who needs to be carried. Bold is sharing your faith and running to the secret place when the world wants to pull you anywhere else. Bold is saying what you really think when no one wants to hear it. And doing the hard thing, even though you fear it. So God, search our hearts and show us where we’ve missed it. Because boldness is the persistence of following you, Lord. Not just when we read it but when we are brave enough to be it. To be like you, Jesus.
Join us for Zeteo 2025, where we will tell your stories and explore how God calls us to be BOLD within them.
