Retreat Theme:
"Learning to Live with Limits"

Kevin writes in anticipation of our time together, "With the economy struggling and job opportunities shrinking, it's more important than ever to learn how to face, accept, and overcome the limitations of life. We'll learn from Paul how he was able to say, "I have learned the secret of being content in every situation." Join us for this retreat and gain strength and wisdom for your life."
