Men's Retreat
Friday, June 7th, 3 PM to Sunday, June 9th, 2 PM
Mann Family Cabin, Youbou, Cowichan Lake
Join us for the 2nd annual Table Men's Retreat! It was decided the men needed their own retreat... without the children (sorry kiddos, we still love you!) So last year, “Man Camp” was transformed into a full-on retreat at the idyllic Mann Family Cabin on the shores of Cowichan Lake. It was an amazing weekend of building relationships, taking in God’s creation, connecting spiritually, and eating lots of good food. Since last year was such a success, we're keeping the location and program pretty much the same. Here are the details:
Please RSVP to mike.rathjen@gmail.com by May 24th. (approx 15 spots available)
