“You need connection; you need each other. You need rest so you can press on in what you have been together called to do.
Together Called isn’t another conference. It is an opportunity to come together, a place for husbands and wives to be step out of the chaos called everyday life and be encouraged, a place for us to learn and fellowship together as a couple and as a community.”
So reads a quote from our Upcoming Events page describing Together Called 2015. In just two short days over 100 couples will be gathering at Bear Creek Mountain Resort to do just that, connect, rest, learn, be encouraged, and enjoy fellowship with our spouses and with each other.
When asked to share why they are coming, couples shared many of these same reasons:
to connect
“Just thankful for the moments together without kids and for connecting with our most beloved family and friends!”
“Taking time for us to build and strengthen our relationship.”
“Looking forward to “getting off the hamster wheel” and having time to talk in complete sentences.”
{We would love} “a connection with even one other couple that we could carry forward and continue after the conference.”
“Looking very forward to connecting as a couple as well as forming connections with other couples!”
to rest
“We are looking to rest and regroup.”
“Sanity! We are burned out and exhausted.”
to learn
“We need some strategies that we can keep each other accountable with.”
“We’re looking forward to meeting those who have been down these same paths as we look for guidance and wisdom moving forward.”
“We know we are making mistakes and doing things that are clearly NOT working. However, we can’t seem to fully right the ship. We need this weekend to sleep, recharge, reconnect, and brain storm!”
to be encouraged
“Prayer from and with those that “get it”.”
“We’re coming in at a very heavy hard time in our marriage. I so appreciate the prayer.”
to fellowship
“Friendship.”
“Time to see old friends and make new ones.”
We couldn’t be more excited to see what God is going to do in and through this weekend! And we covet your continued prayers over this weekend that in all and above all His Name would be honored and glorified.
