Your invited to attend our January Artist Gathering, January 21-23, 2010. You must complete an application and make deposit for consideration. If you are not approved for this year's gathering, then we will promptly refund your deposit!

We are going to invite you to a beautiful high country town in the mountains of Colorado where a maximum of 45 pioneering artists, musicians, and creative missionaries are gathering to share their dreams, joys, and need for one another until it hurts. It will hurt so good. Robin and I have been encouraging artists and equipping pioneering leaders since the early nineties, and lately our tools to equip have gotten noticeably bigger and badder, and our team of co-leaders are actual super heroes. This year Gary and Karla Adolphe will be our co-hosts, but expect to meet many other Worship Circle partners. This is a by-invitation-only retreat and you are wanted. We want to be your personal trainers for ministry fitness for just one weekend this year...think of it as a health retreat for your soul. Are you worth it? We think so.

Topics we may touch: Understanding our role as sons and how it affects our work and our rest Discerning the traditions of men from the Church. What is the Kingdom? Where does money come from? Using the internet as our slave, and not the other way around Establishing healthy connections to leadership and pastoral care Developing a written mission statement and plan for productivity Writing and creating worship, and/or ministry expressions The difference between building the Church and trying to plant one

Bring/Don’t Bring: Bring warm layered winter clothes and hiking shoes. Bring chapstick and lotion. Bring your Bible, your laptop, pen, and journal. Please do not bring your phone or PDA to the retreat and avoid ringing, texting, and twittering at all costs. No wireless will be provided at the retreat location. Bring crazy money for around town stuff and espresso drinks. Do not bring your products or pamphlets for selling yourself--we already want you. Do bring your contact info to share. Wear good socks--you may have to take your shoes off inside.

Application and Reservations Fill this out and send it in with your supporting materials and non-refundable reservation fee of $50 per person by December 11, 2009. You may fax, mail, or email the PDF (no unformatted text files please.) Retreat balance due on arrival. Use extra paper as needed.
