LVR is for high school youth who have completed grade 8. The annual Kansas District Lutheran Valley Retreat (LVR) summer camp encourages youth to grow spiritually, stretch themselves by bonding with new friends, and step out of their comfort zone by participating in physical challenges. LVR programming is designed to help participants identify more closely with the body of Christ as they recognize that the faithful body is not just their home congregation but also individuals from all over Kansas, meeting together as one larger visible church. Youth attending LVR have the chance to go hiking, ziplining, fishing, horseback riding, archery, throw tomahawks, participate in challenge course, and so much more!
