IMPORTANT UPDATE:
2020 MATR HAS BEEN CANCELED
COVID-19 IMPACT
It’s with a heavy heart that we announce that due to COVID-19 impacts we must cancel the 2020 Mid-Atlantic Teen Retreat. We will announce plans for the 2021 event as soon as they are made available.
All churches who have made deposits will be fully refunded.
While we’re disappointed to cancel this year’s events, we trust that God will do great things in future MATR events!

Purpose
Our teens are the next generation – the future leaders of our churches and communities. During these moldable years, we believe sound Biblical teaching is fundamental to training these young people to serve the Lord as adults. The Mid-Atlantic Teen Retreat will feature speakers that are energetic and passionate about teaching young people in a manner that honors God in an environment without distraction.
Held at DoubleTree Williamsburg
We have negotiated rates for standard rooms that can hold up to 4 people. Adjoining rooms may be available based on hotel availability, but cannot be guaranteed. Each church can determine how many rooms, how many chaperones per room, and how many adjoining rooms they wish to book. Payment for rooms is made directly with the hotel and is not required until you arrive at the hotel. Please contact the hotel directly with any changes to your room assignments.
