THIS EVENT HAS ALREADY OCCURED!!!!!
Hey Guys,
I hope this message finds you doing well. You are about to experience a life changing weekend, so it should not surprise you to know that the Enemy fears it and will oppose it in any way he can. Heads up. Be prepared for hassles, set-backs, opposition and spiritual attack. Don't be suprised if you face opposition this week. Our enemy does not want this weekend retreat to happen and will try anything to stop you from coming. I've been praying for each one of you and know that God is going to use this weekend in an awesome way to help each of us get our hearts back. Be praying for each other!
Here are some of the details you'll need for this weekend. Please email or call me if you have any questions.
TIMES:
You can arrive on Thursday any time between 5pm and 7pm. We'll have dinner at 7p.m. Please try to be with us by 7 on Thursday as the whole weekend really builds on each session. If you miss Thursday evening you will have missed the foundation of the weekend. Let me know if you are going to be late and we'll save a plate of food for you. We'll start the first session around 8 p.m.
We'll finish on Sunday with Lunch at around 1 p.m. You can leave any time after that.

CLOTHING:
The weather forecast is for highs in the 50's and low's in the 30's. This is Texas and it's 75 today so who knows what it'll actually be. I'd bring something warm and also shorts and t-shirts.
The confirmed activities are:
Paintball - Bring Clothes that can get paint on them. I suggest jeans and a long sleave shirt of some kind. If you've got camo, I'd suggest bringing it.
Kayaking - Wet Suits will be provided if needed. Bring a swim suit.
Hiking - comfortable outdoor clothes and shoes/boots.
Basketball and other outdoor sports - You know what to wear for this.
Climbing is not yet confirmed ( I assume clothing for hiking will work)
We'll probably spend a lot of time outside in the evenings, so bring warm clothes just in case the weather forecast is correct.
WHAT TO BRING:
Bible
Wild at Heart (The book)
Your favourite movie (we're going to have a big screen set up)
Camera
Shower supplies
Towel
We will not be camping out as a planned activity.
EMERGENCY CONTACT INFO:
We'll be asking everyone to turn off their cell phones for the duration of the weekend. This is to help us "unplug from the matrix". I will check my messages each evening so please give your family my cell phone number as an emergency contact number. The number is (512) 773-5835. They can also call the retreat center at (830) 634-3082.
I'm looking forward to seeing each of you on Thursday. If you want to car pool from Austin I'll be leaving around 3:30 p.m. so that I have time to get stuff set up in Kerrville. Otherwise you can arrange rides among yourselves.
Thanks,
Jonathan Dale
