Rosario Alumni Sabbath

August 23 - 25, 2024


Purchased in 1954, Rosario is always a serene setting. Alumni Sabbath at Rosario is an enriching alumni opportunity, come for Sabbath or the entire weekend. Activities will include presentations by guest speaker, meals for the weekend, vespers programs on Friday and Saturday evenings, Sabbath school and church service, nature walk, bonfire with s'mores on the beach (weather permitting), and lots of great music and fellowship.

Plan to join us for a weekend of fellowship and learning, registration will open in June. The schedule will be very similar to last year's schedule.
