Men's Retreat


One of the reasons that North Church began was to attempt to lead men to be men. We believe that many of the problems in the culture in 2010 are present because men are silent, lazy or absent. There is a great task that God has given to men.

God has placed in men an innate drive to explore and create and conquer. Men are drawn to adventure. Men like movies about war. Men like red meat. Men are also arrogant and dumb and seldom ask for help. Men are called to serve their families and their communities and each other.

The men's ministry at North Church is called Band of Brothers (patterned after the HBO mini series). All that Band of Brothers is about is helping men realize their God given task and to war along side each other.

Our Men's Retreat is the big event for the year. We will tent camp at Timbercreek in DeSoto Missouri. It is only an hour from North County so that people can come and go if schedules dictate that.

We will cook over an open flame, use the many free facilities at the resort (check out the website linked above), hang around the fire under the stars late nights and watch some of the new HBO series The Pacific.

Food and drink-Bring your own
Sleeping-Bring a tent and sleeping bag/air mattress or share tent space.
Dates-Arrive anytime after 4 on Friday May 21 we will leave the morning of the 23rd.
