MGOCSM SE FALL RETREAT!!

Dear All,

Our annual Fall Retreat will be held on September 3-5, 2010 in Bradenton, Fl. This year's theme is taken from Lamentations 3:40 "Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord." All youth are encouraged to attend this retreat and be spiritually revived. This year we will have three speakers: Fr. Mathews George (Sajeev Achen), Fr. George C. Mathew (Benny Achen), and Ms. Ceena Varghese.

Registration Closes on August 17th, 2010. All registrations must be POST-MARKED by this date! Unfortunately, we cannot accept any last minute registrations. The venue is Dayspring Episcopal Conference Center (click here to go to the website). The facility is very clean and perfect for our needs, it is slightly better than the previous facilities.

Please feel free to contact your local Unit Rep, and Retreat Committee Rep for more information. Or email mgocsm.se@gmail.com for more information or if you have any questions.
Thanks, and God Bless.
