If You ARE a Man, or if You KNOW a Man...

...then this post is for you. We met the Burggraf family last year around this time. I called about a free rooster I saw listed on the Sevier County Homeschool list and thus began our fabulous friendship.
Think of the most sincere, kind, generous family that you know, and then times that by 12. That's the Burggraf family. They are really special to us. Anyways, one of the very neat things that Mr. Henry Burggraf does, is that he puts together retreats. He is best known in these parts for his Father/Son campouts, but last year his Father/Daughter campout was also a big hit. The Lord blessed them with an incredibly beautiful, serene piece of property, and it is their desire to honor God by opening it up to bless others.
We have been tremendously blessed by participating in their retreats/campouts, therefore, i wanted to let everybody know about an upcoming retreat that is being planned right now for men. Another neat thing about this retreat is that it is free.
My husband will be at this retreat and so will gena's husband. I hope your guy can make it, too. I am sure all the men there will be blessed! Here is the info on the retreat, and Henry Burggrafs email addy is at the bottom. Send him an email for more info and/or for the registration form. I know he'd be pleased to hear from you!
Also, ask him for the info on the Father/Son and Father/Daughter campouts as well. Those are also free (tho donations would be great if you're able to contribute). Geoff and Paul will be at those, too. It was probably one of the most memorable things that our children did with their dad last year.
Men's Retreat
April 27-28, 2007
Do you want to become a better husband and father? Would you like some practical how to? Then plan on coming to the East Tennessee Men's Retreat. It will be a great time for Christian fellowship and to be challenged to grow in your role as a Christian man. The theme for the retreat will be Leaving a Heritage. You will learn some ways to leave a heritage that will live on forever. What you will learn will be cherished by your wife, children and their offspring for generations to come. So do not miss out on this exciting time in the Lord and what He has in store for you. Registrations will be limited so make your plans today.
There is no cost for the retreat. You do need to bring your own food and drinks for at least 3-4 meals. You will also need to bring a tent and sleeping gear as the campsite will be in a rustic setting.
The retreat location is 17 miles outside of Tazewell, TN. It is a very quiet and peaceful location and a great place to spend time with the Lord. Directions will be sent to those who register for the retreat.
If you have any questions, please e-mail me.
That sounds great Jen
I sent Tony & our buddies the link to your email. I don't have a clue if it will work for them or not, but it sounds like a wonderful time!
