NEW DATE!! March 23-24, 2018
Cost $65 Men / $50 Boys

Men, this is an opportunity for you to bond with your sons, create some amazing memories, and get some great insights into God’s word about leading our families. If you do not have boys of your own, would you consider being a sponsor for a young man at your church?
Pastors: It would be so helpful if you would create a list of boys that need that male influence in their lives that are not getting it at home. And make a list of men that you would trust to lead these boys, and then ask those men directly if they would consider being a sponsor to a boy or two for this retreat. This retreat can be a huge step toward equipping and empowering your men to raise the next generation of men for your church.
