Meta and Activate Student Retreats

Then, for our high school students, the Activate Retreat is scheduled from November 17 through 19 at Youth Front and will focus on the topics of personal growth and resilience. Both retreats make room for opportunities to deepen faith, engage in meaningful discussions, and build lasting relationships.

October Hunger Drive – Raise the Bar Against Hunger

We’re launching our Fall Hunger Drive with the “Raise the Bar Against Hunger” protein bar collection, running now through October 27, to support our Backpacks for Hunger program. Our goal is to collect 150,000 kid-friendly protein bars (like Nature Valley, Clif, and Kind bars) to feed children in need throughout Kansas City for the entire year. Each weekend, we distribute an average of 3,000 protein bars, ensuring kids have nutritious snacks to keep them fueled and ready to return to school on Mondays. You can help by picking up door-hanger packets at any Resurrection location or downloading them online to spread awareness in your neighborhood. To learn more or make an in-kind donation, click the button below. Join us in our commitment to combat hunger and support our community’s children by Raising the Bar Against Hunger.
