Fall Retreat is next weekend, and we are wanting to get as many people to come as possible! The retreat is Nov. 11-13 at Twin Rocks on the coast, and the cost is just $30.
This year’s theme is “Let Nothing,” which comes from Romans 8:38 where Paul says that he is convinced that “nothing can separate us from God’s love.” There are two tracks from which to choose – one led by professor Anderson Campbell and the other by Kaitlyn Ragan from the IDEA Center. Also joining us will be worship leader Tyson Motsenbocker, an artist from Seattle (you can find his music on YouTube, SoundCloud and iTunes).
This year, sessions will be an interactive experience. Rather than attending a sermon, students will engage in an activity that is tailored toward either an introverted or extroverted side. Since the sessions are staggered, students are free to chose any or all sessions they wish. The Saturday night session will be all together.
Twin Rocks has various options for activities, and students will have plenty of free time to go to the beach, do homework or just hang out! We’re so excited for you to come!
Here is the link to sign-up, which includes a link to pay with card, and here is a video link.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email Jamie Barrett at jbarrett14@georgefox.edu.
