Men's Retreat
Creekside Men's Retreat: September 11-12th, 2026
"Be Strong" comes straight out of 1 Corinthians 16:13-14: "Be on your guard, stand firm in the faith, be courageous, be strong. Do everything in love." That's basically our whole weekend in one verse. We're going to spend a day and a half talking about what it actually looks like to be a courageous man, a strong man, and a loving man — not the watered-down version, and not the macho cartoon version either. The real one.
We'll be up at a cabin in Gardner, CO, near the San Juan Mountains — quiet, a little rustic, and far enough from your phone's signal to actually hear something.
Speaker: Craig Glass, founder of Peregrine Ministries and author of Noble Journey and The Passage to Manhood. Craig's spent decades helping men find clarity, courage, and purpose — he's the real deal for this topic.
- When: Friday, Sept 11 – Saturday, Sept 12
- Where: Private cabin, Gardner, CO
- Cost: $100/person — covers food, activities, and our speaker
- Lodging: The cabin has limited beds, given out first-come, first-served at registration. Campers and RVs are welcome if you'd rather bring your own setup (or don't make the cutoff).
- Bring a friend. Seriously. This kind of weekend works better with someone next to you who'll actually ask how you're doing in October.
Heads up: Water's limited at the cabin — showers will be quick or skipped altogether, and there are only two bathrooms for the group. Pack accordingly (baby wipes are your friend).
