We are thrilled that our schedules have aligned to allow Jeff to come and worship with us, and lead us through what is shaping up to be an awesome weekend!

Kumbaya" (Its not), here are some pictures from the retreat...

Folks start arriving Friday Afternoon... don't forget your sleeping bag!

The Friday 'Men's Buffet' is one to look forward to!

The retreat is a great opportunity to meet the men of the church that you
don't know - and to catch up with the ones you DO know!

There's just something about worshiping with other men...
Iron truly sharpens Iron.

"Get off the Fence"  The teaching series was challenging and motivational.

Between sessions... an opportunity to discuss the topics covered, and to share and learn from each other

Its not all "Sitting in the chairs... there's also a lot of opportunity for other types of fun...

A victim of one of the paint ball battles...

The attempt to break John's undefeated streak was not successful.

We enjoyed the preaching...

There weren't any complaints about the food!
