Dear Friends,
Many of you share my concerns about the cultural decline of our country, our state, and our communities. To combat this decline, I’m launching the first annual Black Mountain Weekend on September 26th, 27th and 28th.
The Black Mountain Weekend is an invitation-only men’s retreat to be held at the Ridgecrest Conference Center just outside of scenic Black Mountain, NC.
The weekend will be a time for men of faith to join together for a time of faith, fellowship, and fun.
Speakers and presenters will share their real-world experiences and lead the group in discussions on issues that confront our nation, state, and communities—all in a casual and fun environment that will facilitate fellowship and networking—and all from a Biblical worldview.
We don’t need to look very far to see men in our community that are stumbling and falling. In my opinion and frankly, experience, husbands, dads and brothers are not equipped to handle many challenges that face them. We recognize that “men” need encouragement, tools and resources to be effective in their communities.
It is my honor to invite you to join me for this time of encouragement and learning.
In Christ,
Lt. Governor Dan Forest
