Saturday’s retreat starts with check-in at 8 a.m., then worship at 9 a.m. Breakout teaching sessions, a boxed lunch and afternoon session with communion will round out the day, with the event ending by 3 p.m.

Organizers are also seeking sponsors for the event, and every sponsor church receives a number of tickets for their men to attend the retreat. Major Sponsors are $600  (new sponsors get 12 registrations; past sponsors get 14 registrations). Local Sponsors are $300 (five registrations included).
