A MAN's Retreat

This men’s retreat is intended to be a time for self-reflection, spiritual growth, and fostering deeper relationships with other men in our Journey Church community. This is an opportunity to take a meaningful pause and be refreshed in the truth of who God created you to be. All are invited to come experience what it looks like to step into Christlike manhood.

Speaker 

Sam Park

Sam Park is ordained with the Christian and Missionary Alliance and works both at Queens Herald Church in NYC and for the Metropolitan District of the C&MA as a spiritual/soul coach to other pastors and Kingdom leaders – because they definitely need help like everyone else! Sam loves helping people discover who they are, develop healthy families, and delve into their “futility” (ask him about this!). He and Michelle, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, are proud parents of two amazing teen daughters—Sophia and Emma Jay. They also have a dog named Lady Paisley who’s adorable but sheds everywhere. When Sam isn’t investing in the lives of leaders, his other passion is being in the water fishing!

FAQs

Will transportation be provided?

If you are in need of a ride, please try and coordinate within family groups or through other people if possible. If you are unable to coordinate your own ride and are still in need of one, please contact events@journeychurchatl.com by January 24th. 

Will there be childcare provided?

No, childcare will not be provided at this men’s retreat. In order to allow everyone to experience this retreat to the fullest, we are requesting that attendees please make prior arrangements for their children.

What if I have dietary restrictions?

What should I bring? Does the facility provide linens, toiletries, etc.?

No problem! Just indicate any allergies and/or restrictions on the registration form.
You’ll receive an email with a detailed packing list the week of the retreat. The Ridges Resort is like a regular hotel, so it does provide linens, towels, shampoo/conditioner, but you will need to bring your personal toiletries (e.g.toothbrush, toothpaste).

Will we be allowed to leave the Ridges grounds during the weekend?

Yes, if there is any free time, please feel free to explore the area around the Ridges with other community members.

What if I cannot attend one of the days?

We would still love for you to join us, however the cost will remain the same. Please email events@journeychurchatl.com to give us a heads up.

I can no longer attend. Can I receive a refund?

Is there financial assistance available?

We are sorry to hear you can no longer make it! Your registration can be canceled and you will receive a full refund if done by January 24, 2025. After that point, we can no longer issue a refund. Please reach out to events@journeychurchatl.com if you need to cancel your registration.
