I find Men In Tents to be a refreshing and enriching weekend, filled with time spent in adoration, reflection, and fellowship. I always leave the weekend with a stronger faith and deeper connections with other men who are striving to be their best.

I needed to disconnect from my norm and connect with like-minded individuals through fellowship, ministry, and service. That's what the weekend was all about - doing something a little outside your comfort zone, helping the community, meeting new people, and developing friendships all rooted in Jesus Christ.

“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” This is definitely true of the Men In Tents event. This is a low-key men’s retreat with great facilities, awesome food, interesting activities, and good fellowship.
