FATHER and SON RETREAT 2017
 Gilwell Park, Chingford, Waltham Abbey, London E4 7QW
Friday, 7th April (17:30 hrs) to Sunday, 9th April 2017 (after lunch)
THE RETREAT IS NOW FULL.
You are invited to "INCREDIBLE!", our annual residential retreat for fathers and their 5 - 10 year old sons!
A special time away from everyday life where we can spend time with our sons and make memories with them, their friends and other dads.
The programme includes outdoor activities provided by Gilwell Park, our own activities, worship times, yummy food and fun!
This year our retreat has an "incredible" twist! There will be a special class on Saturday for fathers only (while the helpers entertain your sons). It will be led by one of the London church elders, Paul Rowden, and his son Daniel. Their lesson will be centred around the principles taught in the book "Raising a Modern-Day Knight". You are being encouraged to purchase/borrow the book and read as much as possible before the retreat.
This retreat is open to our friends and family, that is, fathers with son(s) 5-10 years old! You may be asked to room with your invited friend/family member.
