As we all know, the past few months have been crazy, chaotic, and in some cases discouraging for pastors and planters all over America. Because of that, Redemption Church wants to help give a little rest, relaxation, and encouragement to the church planters in Utah. We’d like to invite you to a planters retreat happening Friday, August 28th and Saturday, August 29th. Check out the details below, and contact Daniel Savage at daniel@redemptionutah.com if you have questions.
What: An overnight retreat for the men who are planting great churches in Utah. There will be a Friday BBQ dinner (we’re talking pulled pork, ribs, sausage – the works!), a Saturday pancake breakfast, plenty of activities (gun range, hiking, mountain biking, horse shoes, cornhole, etc.), and most of all, time away from the hustle and bustle of church life, all along side other men who love Jesus.
There won’t be much of a schedule (except for mealtimes). We’ll have some fellowship around the campfire, but other than that, the time is yours! You can do as much or as little as you’d like. There are mountain biking and hiking trails close by so feel free to bring your gear if you’re into that kind of thing.
When: Friday, August 28th and 29th. You may arrive anytime after 1:00 PM on Friday and we’ll wrap things up around 3 PM on Saturday. There’s a neat diner called “One Man Band” in Ephraim if you wanna grab lunch just before your arrival.
Where: Camp UTIBACA. Camp UTIBACA is a privately owned camp with cabins, a dining hall, gun and archery range, lawn games, a peaceful stream, and much more. Set on the foothills of the beautiful Manti-La Sal mountains, the camp is located near Ephraim, UT, about an hour and forty-five minutes from Provo.
Cost: Nothing! Well, nothing other than your time. We are covering the cost of lodging, food, and activities. Dinner on Friday and breakfast and lunch on Saturday will be served.
Registration: Please register by August 21st. This will give us plenty of time to prepare for meals and assign cabins. You can use THIS LINK to register.
