Winter Retreat
13-17 February 2012
"Make plans now to be a part of the first annual Winter Retreat this February! Join friends and fellow Christians on a journey to the beautiful Scottish
Highlands for a week of relaxation and fun! Not only will you enjoy breath-taking scenery and take part in exhilarating activities, but you will also meet other Christians like
yourself who have a desire to know God more and to follow Him. Through the preaching of God’s Word, you will be encouraged in your walk with the Lord and challenged to move forward in service for Him. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to leave the cares and distractions of work, internet and television behind and focus on growing in your knowledge of God and His Word. We hope to see you there!"
-Pastor James
Activities
Throughout the week, you will enjoy a wide range of activities from braving a chilly mountain hike to sledging with your friends!
Other activities include sightseeing, shopping, skiing and iceskating (at an additional cost) and much more!
Location
Abernathy Ardeonaig, By Killin, Perthshire FK21 8SY

This retreat is structured for young people who are serious minded and who long to deepen their relationship with God. We ask that only mature young people aged 16 and older join us for this week.
The cost for each person is £135; concessions £125 for the week. This includes the cost of transport and all meals from Monday evening through Friday afternoon. (You will need to provide lunch for yourself on the journey to Scotland). A £50 deposit is due 22 January, with the remaining balance payable upon arrival.
What to Bring
Be sure to bring your Bible, a notebook and pen; an extra blanket (bed linen will be provided); towels and flannels; soap, shampoo, toothpaste, a toothbrush, and other toiletries; recreational money; several changes of clothes (As this is a Christian activity, please make sure your clothing is appropriate and modest); and an extra pair of hiking boots/wellies for activities. Please be sure to bring WARM CLOTHING! It will be cold in the Highlands of Scotland at this time of year, so we suggest some careful thinking. Stocking hats, gloves, scarves, warm socks, etc. are not an option, but a necessity!
