Sandpoint Men’s Group
Fall Retreat
Sept 29th, 30th & Oct 1st.
Our Community Coming Together
SMG
For those of you in SMG, this weekend is intended to give our new men an opportunity to meet their obligation to attend a two-day retreat during their first 12 months in group and to receive training in our craft of exploring our emotional health. This year, the Stewardship Council is spearheading not only opportunities for education, but to explore both healing and creation/deepest calling journeys. They are the backbone of our work and unites us in our intention to heal and grow. As we grow as an organization at a feverish pace, this weekend is also an opportunity for connection and for some of us to meet each other for the first time.
Eureka Institute in Sagle
Many of us remember last year’s retreat at this incredible facility.
We are excited to host this retreat again with the hopes that we
engage with more outdoor work and connection with fun team
building exercises.
