If you are an Adventist student attending public high school or a homeschooled student who is high school age, STANDOUT 2026 is for you. This faith-centered spiritual retreat is designed with you in mind—your questions, your growth, and your walk with God.
From February 20–23, 2026, students are invited to spend an inspiring weekend at Andrews University, surrounded by a Christ-centered community of fellow Adventist youth. Through dynamic worship services, engaging breakout sessions, and interactive discussions on calling, purpose, and leadership, you’ll have meaningful opportunities to deepen your relationship with God and discover how He is leading in your life.
STANDOUT is also a place to connect—build lifelong friendships, share your faith journey, and enjoy fun activities in a supportive, encouraging environment. Complimentary lodging and meals are provided for all registered students and sponsors, so you can focus fully on the experience.
