This is the annual Samson Society Fall Retreat sponsored by Samson House. Pirate Monks gather on the first weekend in November at the beautiful Lakeshore Camp and Retreat Center in Eva, Tennessee, about 2 hours west of Nashville, to:
Detach temporarily from the stresses of everyday life
Make conscious contact with God in a serene environment
Gain recovery wisdom from others on the Path
Examine our personal patterns from a fresh perspective
Renew old friendships and make new ones
Meet online buddies in-person
Relax around a campfire
Tell stories
Laugh
This year, in addition to our customary workshops and Silas walks, we will be hearing from special guest Jay Stringer, whose book Unwanted: How Sexual Brokenness Reveals Our Way to Healing has altered the Christian conversation around sexual addiction and recovery.
What's Included. The registration fee for the weekend covers lodging, meals, materials, recreational equipment and all programming from dinner on Friday through breakfast on Sunday.
Cost. The price of the retreat depends on the sleeping accommodations you choose. There are two levels of bunkhouse berths available, along with a VERY limited number of private (4) and semi-private (12) rooms.
Transportation. Transportation is not included, but if you are flying to Nashville and need rides from and to the airport, email your carrier and flight times to piratemonktransportation@gmail.com and a member of our team will help you.
What to bring. Hiking, fishing, and boating are available at the camp, so if you want to take advantage of those opportunities, bring your gear. Bring any snacks or special medications.
Bedding. Bedding is NOT provided in the Vintage Bunkhouses or the Lodge Bunk Rooms, so bring your own sleeping bag or sheets and blankets, plus a pillow, UNLESS you are staying in a semi-private or private room.
Electrical outlets. Electrical outlets are scarce in the Vintage Bunkhouses, but there are plenty of outlets in the Lodge Bunk Rooms, semi-private Rooms and single rooms, so bring your phone charger or CPAP machine.
Workshops. There will only be two workshop sessions, so you will need to select the two workshops you will attend in person. However, all workshops will be recorded with video and audio, and those recordings will be made available to all attendees, so you won't need to miss anything.
Questions. Email any other questions related to the retreat to samsonretreat.info@gmail.com
