Some Assembly Required

Bookmark and Share









We're gearing up for our annual leadership retreat next weekend. I really think it sets the tone for the next year. We'll get away with about 150+ small group and ministry leaders and cast vision and strategize ministry and play games and commission leaders.

By the way, it's all-expenses paid. And I feel like it's one of the best investments we make in our leaders!

One of the things I love about this event is that it happens without my creative input. Props to our our Pastor of Discipleship, Heather Zempel, and her team of zone leaders. They do an amazing job theming the event.

The 07 theme is some assembly required. I won't ruin it by revealing too much, but lots of surprises up our sleeves!

John,

Won't be the same without you. Of course, the dodgeball game will actually be safer :)

Kyle-- we are going to miss your amazing performance in the "Name That 80's Christian Tune!"

JH- hopefully, we'll have you back next year!

I have never been to a leadership retreat.

I feel like I just confessed something that is likely to get in trouble next weekend ... Heather be nice ...

But I am so looking forward to it!! This is going to be great :-)

Perhaps you will find a new 80's Christian music expert this year! Maybe the two of us can compete next year!
