FALL RETREAT DETAILS

OCTOBER NINE TO ELEVEN.

Women are going to a lovely resort in San Diego for a weekend of encouragement, bonding, and connecting with God and one another. It is a life changing and super fun experience.

Men are going to the desert to shoot stuff, eat stuff, talk about stuff, hike stuff, and other stuff. It's legit. This weekend is the stuff God makes men out of... seriously. You'll be closer to the God and friends for making the trek to the desert.

Here's the brochure you can download with costs, packing list, and other details. You can also just swing by Encounter and get a hard copy too.

Here's the permission slip/medical waiver packet you'll need too. You can also just swing by Encounter and get a hard copy too.

Don't delay. Space is limited. Sign up today!!!

REALMS SERIES

Our Sunday series is on one of the top things we get questions about when working with high school students: the spiritual realm.

Last week we kicked it off with a discussion about Heaven and Hell. Here's the whole schedule.

September 13: Heaven and Hell

September 20: Beings: Angels and Demons

September 27: Prayer: interacting with another realm

October 4: God and the devil

Don't miss a week. This series is sure to inspire you and make your head hurt a little too. All good stuff well worth marinating your brain on. 9 and 10:45 am on Sundays in Student Center A.

SMALL GROUPS ARE IN FULL SWING

If you are not involved, you're missing some great times.  Guys groups meet around tables in Student Center A on campus and girls groups meet around town, near journey in homes.

Here's the latest schedule for you.  We meet for about 3 weeks straight, and then we change it up for a week or so, and then we dive right back in.  Don't miss out!

FALL RETREAT IS COMING

SAVE THE DATE of OCTOBER 9, 10, AND 11 for this life changing kick off to the school year.

The men go to the desert and bond with fire and wind.

The women to a resort and bond with comfort and each other.

Both trips are amazing. Both trips are life changing. Both trips will change the way you view God and deepen your friendships. Both trips are even worth missing a game over. Seriously. It's that good.

Can't wait. Have details coming next week.

Right now though.... JUST SAVE THE DATE!!!!
