3 days, 2 nights, the rest of your life….
It is difficult to define what an Encounter with God looks or feels like. The Men’s Encounter is not a retreat, and prayerfully like nothing you have ever experienced. It is a unique opportunity for every man that it impossible to describe, even to those who have experienced it themselves. Over the course of the weekend (Friday evening through Sunday afternoon) it is our hope that more men will learn how our Savior Jesus Christ truly desires to impact their lives. Through prayer, worship, and testimony men will learn how God desires them to lead and love their families, community, and church. More importantly, we believe it is the desire of the Lord that each and every man walk away with a renewed faith and drive to seek after Him with a new sense of purpose and freedom.
What is expected of me?
There are no expectations and no requirements (other than being 18 years old) for attending the Encounter. We’ve had men at every stage of their faith, from every walk of life, even non-believers, attend and have life-changing experiences.
How should I prepare?
Pray early, pray often.
Pray that God opens your heart to his gift in this Encounter.
Pray for the brothers with you.
Pray for safety throughout.
A true Encounter with our Lord face to face. What an eye opening, soul searching experience that changed the course of my life.
My Encounter brought me a new sense of peace with my walk with the Lord. Never before did I feel so connected to Christ.
A true encounter with our Lord and Savior that magnifies freedom, forgiveness, and love that has changed the course of my relationship with Christ, my wife, and family for all of eternity.
The Men’s Encounter was life changing for me, and my life hasn’t been the same since. I was going through the motions at church even though I “believed” in God. Now I pursue Jesus every day, in every way I can. When you show up on the hill, so does God!
It was an opportunity for true self examination. I was overwhelmed by what God did in me that weekend!
Men’s Encounter was amazing! I can’t even call it a retreat, it was unlike anything I have ever experienced. A time of lament, reflection, fellowship, worship and joy. I don’t want to give too much away, you have to experience it for yourself!
