It's time to sign up for the VBC Worship Retreat!
This weekend is a mandatory time to get away from the bills, laundry and yard work, to be set aside for a time of refreshing, preparing our souls for another season and connecting as a team.
There are big changes to this year's retreat. We are finally able to get away after years of hosting here on campus. We were able to book space at Mount Hermon, a beautiful Christian conference center in the Santa Cruz Mountains. We are also meeting a little later in the year, the weekend of October 25-27th, which will still give us good weather and give us the opportunity to get a solid start on our Christmas program. With prices soaring, we have been praying and God has really been opening the doors for us. Our initial quote per person was over $400, but a precious Worship Ministry member donated a significant amount to bring down the cost per person. And then, as we prepared to sign the contract, Mount Hermon had lowered the price per person! Praise the Lord! We are convinced that God has set aside this time and place for us and we are prayerfully anticipating that God will meet us in His beautiful creation.
