May 30/June 1 - Bridge spiritual retreat

May 30/June 1 - Bridge spiritual retreat We have secured a place to stay for the retreat!!


THE PLAN:


The bLT hopes to organize two retreats a year -- one focusing on fellowship and the other focusing on spiritual renewal. This upcoming retreat is our spiritual retreat; so the focus will be on spiritual renewal, not who finished the most bottles of wine :) To that end we will capitalize on our location and spend some time in the woods by going on a small hike or walk, engaging in some contemplative readings and discussions -- ie, bible studies :) -- and a few other activities in that general theme.
If anyone has anything they really want to do, let Sarah know and she make it happen. Do I hear hula hoop team building anyone?

So, for those who were wondering what we do on our retreats... it is basically a Wednesday night meeting stretched out for a weekend. Time filled with fellowship, fun and study... or to quote our Mission Statement: adults gathering for the purpose of Spiritual Growth, recognizing Spiritual Growth as encompassing elements of study, fellowship, and service.

If you still have any questions (or suggestions for the retreat) please let the bLT know.
Thanks! Sarah

The Wrightwood United Methodist Church has graciously allowed us to stay in their church and use their facilities. The cost of the retreat will be $30 per person, but if you can't afford it please talk to one of the bLT members and we will help you out. Please let the bLT know if you are planning on attending by either signing up on the board in the bridge room or emailing shuntting@gmail.com or signing up on the evite: We would like to get a ballpark figure soon for planning purposes, so the sooner you an let us know the better (it would be extremely helpful if you respond even if you are not sure YES/NO/MAYBE). (you can always go back and change your answer if you are a maybe) Hope to see you all there!!
