Dr. Vest to lead Men’s Retreat at Camp Hanover

Dr. John Vest, Visiting Assistant Professor of Evangelism at Union Presbyterian Seminary will be leading a Men’s Retreat entitled “Finding Community in a Networked World”

Our fathers and grandfathers likely found community and fellowship in various membership-based institutions like fraternal orders, civic organizations, sports teams, hunting and fishing clubs, and church. But these kinds of organizations—including church—have been declining in numbers for decades. At the same time, balancing the demands of work and family feels harder than it’s ever been. What does community—especially faith-based community—look like for men in today’s networked world? Deep in the woods of Camp Hanover, we’ll explore this topic together as we engage in some ancient communal activities around campfires and BBQ pits.
