What is the Encounter?

We wish to invite the young people in your church to a one-day, all-day retreat titled “The Encounter (Acts 9:5; Heb 4:15).” This one-day retreat is an opportunity for us to seek revival, not in a superficial sense, but in an enduring sense driven internally by our encounter with God.

In a changing world filled with ChatGPT and short-form video, with fake and AI-generated content and make-believe swirling all around, we see around us, people seeking the truth but finding confusion. How do we re-take our narrative, the time-tested and honored narrative passed down to us by our forefathers from generations past? How do we engage our new world with confidence, knowing that what we hold is the best and not letting anyone take it away from us?

In this retreat, we aim to redefine our beliefs with great understanding grounded in incontestable encounters – encounters that make our faith real and our experience valid. We seek to encounter Jesus in ways that are personal to us and personable to us – an encounter for the memories that cannot be erased from our hearts.

We hope you can join us in this journey of rediscovery where we rediscover God and His son Jesus and make Him our ever-present companion as we navigate our present world.
