Vaaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa   Vaaheguru Ji Ki Fateh

The Sikh Youth Alliance of North America (SYANA) is excited to announce the upcoming 18th Annual Memorial Day Retreat from May 25, 2012 – May 28, 2012 at the YMCA Camp Storer in Jackson, MI.

The power of Sangat lies within its ability to challenge our minds, to expand our horizons and to further our individual relationships with the Guru.  Seizing these rare opportunities of group experience and development is paramount to our own individual progression on this path.  Opportunities to spend quality time with other Sikhs who desire to study, learn and live the path of the Guru does not come often. It is in light of these sentiments that SYANA hosts these retreats each year.

The retreat is geared toward Sikh students and professionals (ages 18 -39) who are dedicated to strengthening their Sikhi and increasing their knowledge.  The hope is to create an environment where open discourse can help inspire a spirit of lifelong learning.  Through Keertan Divaans, various workshops, Gurbanee discussions, and healthy debate, we will explore several aspects of “Seva and service in the life of a Guru’s Sikh”.

We humbly invite you to join us on this endeavor towards self-improvement and realization.  A weekend amongst Sangat in an atmosphere of natural wilderness can often bring about emotions and realizations that are not soon to be forgotten.

As always, we look forward to seeing old faces and we hope to connect with new ones as well. Please join us and take advantage of this wonderful opportunity.
