JOIN US ON A TRIP!

mens wild at heart retreat / august 14 - august 17

This is not a retreat about the “seven things a man ought to do to be a nicer guy.” It is a four- day quest into the recovery of a man’s masculine soul, the release of a man’s heart – his passions and his true nature – all given him by God. It’s an invitation to rush the fields of Bannockburn, to go West, to leap from the falls and save the beauty. For if a man is going to know who he truly is as a man, if he is going to find a life worth living, love a woman deeply, and not pass on his confusion to his children, he simply must get his heart back. Arrival is 6pm on August 14th and departure is 10am on August 18th. This is held in Lakewood, WI.

WOMEN’S OUTDOOR ADVENTURE / AUGUST 14 - AUGUST 17

Join us on a retreat for women who love outdoor activities. Do you love outdoor activities or maybe you want to learn about a new outdoor activity.

We will be taking the Restore bus and a group to our destination in Little Suamico and returning August 17, 10 am. This retreat is for women 21+.
