Charis is also partnering with FreedomWorks recovery community to offer weekend retreats at their Minneapolis facility. Participants, called weekenders, are given the opportunity to experience spiritual renewal and to accept God’s call to live a life of Christian witness and service to one another.
Applicants must:
1. Agree to attend the entire 3-day weekend presentation (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday).
2. To the best of your ability, be attentive and participate in all scheduled activities.
Basic information for Weekenders
The days begin at 8:30 am and we attempt to finish Friday and Saturday nights by 8:30 pm. We go home at night and come back each morning. The weekend ends on Sunday afternoon around 4:30 pm.
The weekends are co-ed.
The days are long and structured. There are breaks throughout the day, for smokers, for phone checks, etc.
There is no cost to attend. All meals, snacks and beverages are provided. You do not need to bring anything; all materials are provided.
Dress comfortably. A couple layers are a good idea as we move around the FreedomWorks facility frequently. Breaks can be taken outdoors.
