Open to all men desiring to learn
from the lives of key people in the Bible
as they were changed and moulded by God!
This is an invitation for Men, young and old to come to our annual Men's Retreat, held this year in Bandon, Co. Cork. It is a get-away like no other! This year's Meeting will be held from Thursday evening through Saturday morning (12-14 April), and it costs just 35 for everything!
The theme
this year is the Study of the Life of Peter - A man that had to overcome pride
and always relying on self! We will see how Christ broke and changed Peter,
bringing him through trials and tribulation and developing his faith into the
amazing man we see on the day of Pentecost. We will learn so much from him, and
see how to apply those lessons to our lives, both strengthening ourselves, and
those around us!
Make plans to attend this life-changing event that includes great Christian
fellowship, great preaching, awesome singing, prayer times, and great food
(seriously)! Weather permitting, there will be hiking, sports and hopefully a
chance to witness for the Lord! Bring your Bible, a sleeping bag, and come
hungry!
There is room for 75, but booking is first-come, first serve, so make your plans and let Pastor Craig Ledbetter know as soon as you can whether you and your church are coming and when you plan on arriving.
Teens, and even younger boys are encouraged to come as long as their father is with them, or as along as their pastor agrees to take responsibility for them.
This is a 48 hour Retreat from Thursday evening until Saturday morning. So, if you can come Thursday evening, and can stay all the way through till Saturday at Lunch, you will surely get a FULL CUP! But if you can only drive down on Friday, you still will still be changed by the preaching! Some of the topics we will be learning about Peters conversion include:
The Ways Christ broke and changed Peter
The conversion (transformation) of Peter - more than salvation!
Peter's Home - balance in the ministry and the Christian Life
Peter's trials and how he got through them
Peter's faith - How Jesus developed Peter's faith
Peter's Ultimate Challenge - How to just stay following Jesus
Costs will be based on how many nights you can stay, and therefore how much FOOD each person eats. So, plan on 35 per person. That pays for the meals, and the use of the rooms and facilities that we use for the meetings. Kids under 14 will just cost 25 each. If you can only come for one night, then take off 10.
From Cork, the village of Bandon is just 45 minutes south.
Please pray
about being able to come, and let me know soon!

If you have any questions, or need directions, just email, telephone, or write
me back! But remember, this is on a first come first serve basis so LET ME KNOW
SOON!
I cant wait for the shout!
