Its been year since the DBOB blog has been updated. It’s been long wait for this 3
rd annual retreat. I got to tell you this was most interesting retreat we have had. The lesson was well planned. To experience Deaf Men Retreat is rarity. Keynotes that were presented truly blew my mind. We learned about Neimiah who “Lived for God, in order to serve we need to have attitude like Jesus as we covered Galatians chapter 5 about the 9 fruits of the spirit. We need the Light – Jesus in our heart before we can give, to give is to have the right heart. We get plugged into Christ since he is the vine and we are the branches, with this we can serve effectively. Lastly we learned how we can express ourselves. During last part of the retreat we all prayed for each man’s struggle and success. It was very important for us men to open up to each other as it says in the bible. This is best way in order to become stronger effective followers of Christ in deaf ministry. We hope and pray each man become more motivated to take charge in their deaf church and worship.
We are planning for the retreat for next year and possibly more likely will be in Colorado. Bit way out of area. One of our deaf brothers from Colorado has a heavy heart for the deaf men there. We want to see if God will open the door. This will be great because we can bring all deaf men from Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado, and of course DC Metro area.
The DBOB blog has been reconstructed. I just added the dbob08 photo link to sidebar of this blog. Enjoy. Hope all men who read this will be motivated to find way to establish men retreat in your area. If you have any questions or need assistance in how to establish one, then feel free to respond. This blog will continue time to time. Stay tuned to sporadic thoughts and ideas how we can keep fired up for Lord. May God Bless you.
