Mountain Man Retreat

Each year the guys at the south end churches host a Mountain Man Retreat up at Sore Acres. The theme is always: God, Guys, Grub & Guns (I’m not positive about the order?) and all four are really good!!! They always have so much fun, it makes me wish I could go…

This year, our church brought a whole bunch of guys! Lots of them were under the age of 20! And God gave them really nice weather (well, nice for this year…)!

God: Stan Olsen was this year’s speaker and he had two sessions, one Friday night and one Saturday morning. He spoke about the story of David and Saul.

   Guys: There were also about 28 guys.

 

 Grub: Bob Unfried is in charge of the food, so you know it’s amazing! All I heard about when they got back (other than the guns) was the ribs, deep-fried turkeys, and jello (yes, the jello)!

GUNS: Yup, there are a whole lotta guns up there! And that’s just the way they like it! The boys all came back to our place after the retreat. I assumed they were all playing some kind of first-person shooter game… Nope, they were watching video footage from the retreat! :o)

 At the range…

Here’s what they were shooting at…

   A fire extinguisher… Now that doesn’t seem like a good idea. Hmmm???

I like this one!

Hey! That’s a really cute bear! Why are you taking his picture???

  

Ahhh!!! He must be Pastor Steve’s bear! That’s so sweet!

WAIT!!! What are you going to do to Teddy???

To see what happened to Teddy and watch other footage of the shooting range, click HERE. (pay special attention at about 3:15)

Poor, poor teddy!!! Why does Keegan look so happy???

 

Then it was off to the field for skeet shooting. You can watch footage of that HERE.

May God continue to work on the lives of these men and shape them into the godly leaders that He wants them to be!
