Based on several group discussions, we have finally decided on the theme of our 2001 Retreat.
We'll call it the Five-R Retreat. Thanks to Moses for giving us his invaluable input.
In our Five-R Retreat, we hope to achieve the followings:
Relaxation (Physical and mental) - through singspiration, games, sharing meals together
Reflection (self review) - through quiet times, messages, sharing
Repentance (admittance of sins and/or inequities) - through quiet times, messages, sharing
Restoration (rebuild relationship with God and others) - through quiet times, messages, sharing
Rejuvenation (spiritual refreshment) - through witness, worship, sharing
(from Alice Yu)
Date: 19 Oct.(Fri.) to 21 Oct. (Sun)
Venue: Breakthrough Youth Village , 33 A Kung Kok Shan Road, Shatin
How to get there? You can take the KCR to Shatin station then take No. 67K minibus to Breakthrough. The time for reaching Breakthrough from Shatin station is around 15 to 20 minutes. The interval of the minibus is 10 to 15 minutes.

Over the last few weeks, there are several discussions on the coming retreat, some brothers and sisters (b/s) observations and suggestions are briefing summarized below, wish that this could stimulate some thoughts and serve as a basis of further discussion.
What should they need in the retreat?
We need helps on the good reading material, quiet time material, group leaders, food coordinators, games, workshops, witness, songs, singspiration leaders, etc. Can you help?
