No, I haven't been hacked, and this is really me posting.
We are getting in the retreat car, and going. We will not be turning around. (I could stop and open the door for some to get out though...)
We are doing this, almost certainly, on Father's Day weekend (June 18-2o), though there's still a small chance this could be pushed to the next weekend. We are doing this in northern Arkansas or southern MO (Branson/Springfield, Fayetteville, Fort Smith, Little Rock are all in play).
This will be more relaxed than some previous summer retreats, as we get back on our retreat-feet. We are looking to fellowship and enjoy each other's company - and to focus on our families, and how God has been good to us over the last year. A little worship, some prayer, some games, lots of laughter. Plural and non-plural families of every size and age will be there, and welcome, for newcomers who may be uncertain of what to expect.
We are having trouble finding a campground location that works, so it seems likely we will have to fall back to a hotel - and that may limit how many we can have attend. Hopefully a campground nearby for those who'd prefer that to staying in the hotel.
We hope to have more solid info later this week, but I wanted to put this much out for folks now. I'll actually try to do a newsletter (memba those?) when we have it ready.
It's also possible we could do a central California get-together, if there's enough interest, likely early August, before the state burns to a crisp.
Then Florida in maybe Oct/Nov.
Feel free to write @julieb and @nathan, if you are interested or want more info. Or post here to tell people you are coming/not-coming, so they can work out if they want to come/not-come accordingly!
