Over 80 people attended the Koinonia Winter Retreat! The weekend was packed with challenging messages from God’s Word, illustrations from Lord of the Rings movie clips, moving times of praise, and wonderful times of fellowship, especially through playing sports and singing around the campfire together. God worked in a mighty way at the retreat, leading 10 people to make salvation/lordship decisions, and many others to rededicate their lives to God. We look forward to all that God has in store for the coming year, and living it out together!

Here are some photos of what we did:

This retreat is a special time away from the stress and distractions of life to spend some good time together and carefully consider life, God, and how it all comes together.  We guarantee that you’ll have a lot of memories and food for thought.  It’s open and relevant to everyone, whether you’re new to Christianity or a Christian seeking to grow more.  This year, the retreat theme will be driven by biblical lessons from the super-exciting, some would say “epic”, Lord of the Rings story (and yes, movies!).  You don’t want to miss out!  Please sign up below.

When: Saturday 1/16/10 to Monday 1/18/10
Where: Lutherhill Retreat Center (La Grange, TX)
