This singles retreat is for those who are not dating, those who are dating, even those who are engaged. Our theme is “Nerve Wrecked: Finding the Courage to Act”. Anxiety about the future, fear of failure, and failure to thrive are some of the most talked about issues with regard to young adults today. Participants will explore the insights Holy Scripture gives for facing our fears, finding our nerve, and having the courage to act. The afternoon will feature two keynote presentations by Pastor Braaten, prayer offices, indoor and outdoor activities, food, and fun. Check-in begins at 12:30pm. The retreat begins promptly at 1:00pm. Participants are welcome to hang around after 7:00pm and play board games. Participants are asked to register here on Zeffy. The cost is only $20 per person, payable the day of the retreat. Come and get to know other LCMS singles who faithfully confess Jesus Christ and the one true faith. <hr /> The Rev. Jason Braaten is pastor of Immanuel Lutheran Church in Tuscola, Illinois. He is a graduate of Concordia Theological Seminary (MDiv, 2006) and Concordia University Chicago (BA, 2000). He is the logic instructor for Wittenberg Academy and the host of The Gottesdienst Crowd podcast. Braaten also serves as a member of the Board of Directors of the Lutheran Church Extension Fund of the LCMS. His presentations have been especially focused on virtue and deadly sins such as: “Consider the Ant: Overcoming Sloth with Zeal.” He and his wife, Lauren, have five children (three boys and two girls) and live in Tuscola, Illinois.
