Retreat 2009 is coming up in a week and a half. The retreat is about stepping aside, slowing down, spending time with God. Our theme this year is "Coming to God." We'll look at how we approach to God, how God sees us and spend some time looking at the very basics of prayer.
One of our desires is to never let money get in the way of ministry. There are always economic realities to what we do, but we do our best to manage that part so it doesn't interfere with what God wants to do in us.
The last few years we've gone with a "pay what you can afford" approach. We've only ever done limited fundraising, so in previous years the church has covered any gaps. That options just isn't available this year, so we need to do things differently.
We have a limited amount of scholarship funds available. If you cannot afford the full registration cost, please contact us. We know this is a special time, and we want as many people as possible to attend.
Maybe I sound like any other youth pastor or preacher, but I don't care. I'm sensing something brewing. Our Father is at work in this retreat. It's about restoration and being able to be comfortable in our own skin and in His hands. Be ready. Be watching. Be open. There's a Father who loves you and longs to share life with you.
