Men’s Summer Hiking Retreat

Mark your summer with an adventure, take in the north woods, absorb the abundance of God’s creation and build connections with other Christian men while enriching and exploring your faith. We will be returning to the Chateau Leveau, near Tofte. More information will be available soon.

Men’s Black Hills Hiking Retreat

September 15 - 19, 2010
Estimated Cost: $300 - $400

Visit a land of legends. Walk in the footsteps of history.

Experience a place regarded as sacred, a place where stone emerges dramatically from the Prairie and seems to reach for the sky. Take in some of the greatest vistas in North America. This is an important opportunity to deepen your faith and build connections with a small group of like minded men. We will stay at Custer State Park and spend three days hiking and in Christian study. Expand your horizons and your faith.

We leave early on September 15th and return by late afternoon on the 19th. Space is limited.  Please prayerfully consider this biennial event. Contact Pastor Chris Steubing or Dale Reed with any questions.
