Gloria Dei

This September, like the last thirty, the men of Gloria Dei are going to gather for the 31st Annual “Fall Retreat.”  The retreat takes place on the shores of Fish Hook Lake at the Northern Pines United Methodist Assembly Grounds just outside Park Rapids, MN. We gather for fun, fellowship, bible study and worship.  We hope you can join us for this wonderful time together celebrating the oneness we all have in Christ Jesus.

In addition to the daily discussion sessions centered on the chosen theme for the weekend, opportunities for worship are available on Friday evening when we gather for Holden Evening Prayer, and on Sunday morning for the Service of Holy Communion. Both Friday’s and Sunday’s services are held in the camp’s beautiful chapel.

It’s important to know that everyone has a place on this retreat...all are welcome and the opportunities for the men of Gloria Dei to get to know and connect with one another are endless.  Whether it is gathering at the table for a meal, biking or rollerblading the Heartland Trail, playing a round of golf, quiet time in a fishing boat, hiking at the Headwaters of the Mississippi, sitting on the dock and watching the sunset, taking a walk, reading a book, worship, spiritual reflection, taking an afternoon nap, a good game of cards, “schmoozing” in the kitchen...whatever the activity...the Fall Retreat promises to be an enriching, relaxing and enjoyable time for all.

WE HOPE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO JOIN US.
