The Challenge is an intense weekend growth opportunity for men.

It consists of teaching, ministry, fellowship and food, packing as much as we can into the time we have.

Details:

It will run from the evening (around 7pm) of Thursday March 31st to Saturday April 2nd afternoon. The cost is $150 per person, and the location is at Fairhavens retreat centre. We’ll sort out rides together once we have an idea of who is going. If cost is a barrier for you, let Andrew or Elliot know—there are some funds to help.

There is a mandatory assignment that everyone coming needs to submit to David Campbell (at trinitycc@rogers.com), which is to describe something that you’ve been challenged by in the past year or so in 500-1000 words. And it can certainly be about a challenge that is ongoing. Assignments can be submitted any time before the weekend, but the sooner the better as David will be selecting a few to potentially be shared with the group.

And to re-iterate the intent for those who haven’t attended a previous weekend: it is a time of focused pursuit of God that consistently yields powerful results in the lives of the guys who’ve come and engaged. The title comes partly from the assignment—being willing to share about a challenge you’ve faced or are facing over the last year—and more broadly it comes from the weekend being about facing the challenge of genuine personal and corporate pursuit of God as men; really grappling with what that means for us and requires of us. I think I can speak for those of us from New Life who have attended previously when I say that it really is an encouraging and worthwhile time.

It is a catalyst for breakthrough in hearing from God and deepening our relationships and pursuit of him; a really valuable opportunity.

Contact Elliot with any questions, or commitment to come at challenge@nlife.ca, or 519 387 7190.
