Encounter Q&A with Rob Owens

The Encounter Retreat has been postponed for now.

Why?

Not because we don't believe in it, but because we believe so much in it!

We want to have a bigger, better, blowout encounter because we have seen the transformation that happens at these events.

So, stay tuned as we gear up for a ginormous encounter.

And, if you need more motivation, read below...

Maybe you've been considering attending but don't know what the Encounter Retreat is. We asked Rob Owens, an Encounter Retreat volunteer, a few questions about the retreat and why you should consider attending.

When did you attend an Encounter retreat?
Rob: I attended the encounter
last January during a time of great mental and spiritual struggle in my life.

Without giving away any surprises, what was the best part of the
Encounter for you?
Rob: The best part of the encounter for me was truly
opening my heart to understand God's grace and forgiveness. I was able to see
that spiritual warfare was going on in my life and I was letting the wrong side
win. The encounter allowed me to renew my relationship with God and my life has
been amazing ever since.

Why are you/do you go back to Encounter as
volunteer?
Rob: I go back because I see it as a ministry to others. So
many people helped me that weekend with my relationship and were ministers to
me. I feel God has laid it on my heart to give the same opportunity to others.

Who do you think should attend Encounter? Why?
Rob: I feel
that anyone who is stagnant in their walk with God or is not walking with God
should attend this encounter. God will work in so many ways if you attend with
an open heart and an open mind and your life will never be the same.
