Strong Men of God Retreat
October 4, 2019 - October 6, 2019
An Invitation…
Greetings Brothers,
You are invited to attend the Strong Men of God Retreat being held once again at Cohutta Springs Conference Center on the weekend of October 4-6, 2019. The Georgia-Cumberland and South Atlantic Conference men’s ministry leadership teams have worked diligently to make this weekend a time where you will be refreshed and restored through…
- Challenging Messages
- Inspirational Music
- Informational Seminars
- Delicious Meals
- Outdoor Activities
- Comfortable Accommodations
- Relaxing in Nature
Every man wants to be a “Strong Man” but most of us, if we are honest, will admit that we are not as strong as we would like to be. And instead of charging hard, pushing on into exhaustion, we all need to rest, retreat, and get restored. The Strong Men of God Retreat is the perfect opportunity for you to do just that… so don’t miss out!
Our leadership team has taken special care to provide registration options that fit every man’s budget and schedule. If you register for the Cohutta Springs Triathlon or the Car Show, both held on Sunday morning, you will receive a special reduced rate. See the complete list of packages below that range from $70 to $325.
Guys, I can promise you that God will show up at the retreat. He always does. So, block your calendar, make plans, pack your bags, and join us at the retreat!
And, if you’ve never been to Cohutta Springs you’re in for a treat! Watch this short video to get a taste of what to expect… CLICK HERE!
Here’s to Building Strong Men,

Expect to see everything from a Dodge Viper to a funny car dragster. Let’s fill the parking lot!
