🎭 Drama Ministration Highlights Easter Retreat 2026 🎭

One of the most impactful moments of the retreat was the Drama Ministration, beautifully illustrating the theme:
“Living a DENT-Free Life as a Christian Youth in this Contemporary World” (Ephesians 5:25)
Through powerful expressions and deep storytelling, the message was made clear how the world tries to leave dents on our lives through sin, peer pressure, and distractions, but through Christ, we are restored, made whole, and set free.

It was more than a performance; it was a divine message that touched hearts, opened eyes, and stirred a desire to live right for God.

📸 Here are some inspiring moments captured during the ministration…

May we carry this message in our hearts and continue to live a life that is DENT-FREE in Christ!

✨ Easter Retreat 2026 Highlights ✨

Today was a powerful and life-transforming experience at our Easter Retreat!

With the theme:
“Living a DENT-Free Life as a Christian Youth in this Contemporary World” (Ephesians 5:25)

We were reminded that as Christian youth, our lives should not be dented by the pressures, sins, and corrupt systems of this world. Instead, we are called to live whole, pure, and free through the love and sacrifice of Christ.

It was a day filled with impactful teachings, deep prayers, spirit-filled worship, and uplifting fellowship. Truly, lives were touched and hearts were renewed!

May we continue to live a life that reflects Christ—undented, unshaken, and unstoppable in faith.

🔥 DENT-FREE and FULL OF CHRIST! 🔥
