Even more than the bacon station, disc golf, ziplines, pontoon tours, ranges, hammocks, and more food than we could list, the greatest joy this morning was hearing the Word preached and 160+ voices lifted in response. We still have openings for the next two weekends of Men’s Retreats if you’d like to join us! https://www.campbarakel.org/events/fall-mens
