Ascent 2008
Men's Retreat

The Ironworks Men’s Ministry is planning a men’s retreat at Camp Mt. Crags in Malibu, CA. 
Dates: Friday, October 24 to Sunday, October 26 .

For this year's retreat, we are blessed with the site of Camp Mt. Crags in the Malibu canyons which is only 25 miles from our church.  Nestled in the old oaks and sycamores, this rugged and yet idyllic facility is a great setting for us to spend a weekend with our Christian brothers in pursuit of God and His heart for us in this challenging and exciting time.  This will be a great time for the men of our church to get away from the distractions of life in order to focus on God, fellowship with one another and have fun!  The cost is $150.

Register now for this spiritually enriching time!

Retreat Speakers

Dio Yang:  Dio has been the Iron Works ministry coordinator for the past five years.  Since the beginning of this year, the Lord has put in his heart to share this message of His power and His Kingdom with the men of the Vineyard. Inspired by God's promise and His vision given in Ezekiel chapters 36 and 37, Dio sensed that this is the season that the Lord is calling His men to rise up and enter into the Kingdom living in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Devin Williams:  Pastor Devin has been a great advocate and encourager to the men of the Vineyard since he joined the pastoral staff in February this year.  He will be speaking in the concluding session of the retreat to lay some clear guide posts for us to live out the vision and promise of God in our lives coming down from the mountains.
