Pacific NW Men’s Retreat

Join with men-identified folks from across the Pacific Northwest Conference for a weekend of connection, reflection, and renewal at Pilgrim Firs Camp for the annual Men’s Retreat.

This year’s retreat will be led by Conference Minister, The Rev. Phil Hodson, who will guide participants in exploring: What does it mean to be the Church today? What is our role as men? How can we better tell our own faith stories – and join others in telling theirs? Together with Phil we will explore these questions through conversation, worship, and shared experience. You are invited to watch a special invitation from Phil above. An optional Silent Retreat is also available from Thursday evening through Friday afternoon, offering space for quiet reflection before the main retreat begins.
