We will prepare our hearts for the Resurrection by remembering the Last Supper on the night Christ was betrayed and celebrating the sacrament of Holy Communion.

Christ died a painful, terrible, horrible death for you. He took the weight of every sin of every person upon that cross. He was the perfect sacrifice for our imperfect lives. But He didn’t stay dead. Sunday’s coming…

Join us for a men’s retreat designed to strengthen faith through fellowship, time in God’s Word, and shared outdoor activities. The weekend begins Friday evening with check-in and an opening program, followed by relaxed activities that give men space to connect, laugh, and build relationships.

Saturday blends spiritual growth with hands-on experiences like fishing, hiking, archery, and axe throwing. Men may start the day with an optional prayer hike, then gather for meals, meaningful teaching, and a featured speaker. The afternoon offers free time to enjoy the outdoors or rest. (And yes, for those who need to keep an eye on Augusta, there will be a room with a TV set up to watch the Masters!) The day continues with small group discussions, a BBQ dinner, and an evening of fellowship around the bonfire.

On Sunday morning, men are invited to another optional prayer hike, breakfast, and worship together before packing up and heading home encouraged, grounded in faith, and strengthened by time spent in God’s creation and in community with one another.

Registration to attend is $80 and includes all lodging and food. Register today using the link HERE. Cost should never be a barrier to participation. If financial assistance would be helpful, support is available—please reach out, to Pastor John David and we’ll make sure cost doesn’t stand in the way of attending.
