A Weekend to Learn, Connect & Retreat
Come ready for meaningful conversations about relationships, great worship, plenty of laughter, new friendships, and time to simply enjoy being away.
This schedule is tentative and subject to change. And remember—this is a retreat! You are welcome to participate in as much or as little of the programming as you’d like. Take a nap. Go for a walk. Sit by the fire. Meet someone new. Spend some time with Jesus. Make the weekend what you need it to be.

This weekend isn’t about packing every minute with programming. It’s a retreat.
Join the main sessions. Ask the questions you’ve always wanted to ask. Meet some new people. Worship together. Play volleyball. Ride a horse. Sit around the fire. Take a nap. Go for a walk. Catch up with an old friend—or make a new one.
Come spend a weekend learning how to be a good one, find a good one, recognize when someone isn’t a good one, and build the kind of love worth keeping.
