Hillside Men's Retreat
Mission Springs Conference Center- February 20-22, 2026
Conference Speaker - Rick Countryman

If you’re serious about following King Jesus, you were never meant to do it alone. Discipleship is built in the context of real relationships—brothers who know you, challenge you, pray with you, and walk beside you. That’s exactly why Hillside Men’s retreat matters.

The retreat gives you something that everyday life rarely allows: space. Space to step away from the noise and distractions, and time to intentionally connect with other men who are pursuing Christ alongside you. In that setting, friendships deepen, trust grows, and spiritual bonds are formed or strengthened in ways that simply don’t happen in passing conversations on Sundays.

Those relationships are not optional—they’re essential. They shape our character, sharpen our faith, and help us grow into the kind of men King Jesus calls us to be. When we link arms with our Hillside brothers, we discover a simple truth: we don’t just grow individually—we grow Stronger Together.

If you’re ready to invest in your walk with Christ and in the men who will walk with you for years to come, this retreat is for you.
Sign Up!

Kindly note: Registration Fee refunds cannot be made for cancellations after February 6th.
