Resurrection 2026 | January 23-25, 2026
LeConte Center, Pigeon Forge, TN
Resurrection is an annual weekend retreat filled with worship and spiritual growth for youth and their mentors. Each year over 12,000 individuals come together in Pigeon Forge, TN, to celebrate the God of The Resurrection. Through inspirational words and music led by nationally known speakers and musicians, young people encounter the Lord in new and deeper ways.
FRVR FREE is leading worship again this year, and the speaker is Paul Taylor Smith. Students in grades 6th-12th grades (and parent volunteers!) are encouraged to register!
Registration includes lodging in a cabin (the Legacy Lodge in Pigeon Forge), entry to the event, and some meals. A deposit of $50 is suggested and the total cost per student is $100. Scholarship opportunities will be available to cover some of the expense for students who participate in our January fundraisers! All students who have attended multiple youth group events in the last six months are invited to sign up, including new events leading up to Resurrection. If have a question about your student’s or your student’s friend’s eligibility, please contact Matt Randle. This registration is for Youth Only. If you are interested in being an adult chaperone, please contact Matt at matt.randle@fountaincityumc.org. A parent meeting will be announced soon to discuss Resurrection as well as information for the coming year.
