Washington Weekend

Washington Weekend began in 1982 as an opportunity to bring friends together to deepen our love for Jesus and one another. The purpose of this weekend is: i) to confirm and strengthen our calling to be men and women who love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength, ii) To build the bonds of support, love and fellowship among a diverse cross-section of people, and iii) to instill a vision of leadership centered in Jesus which has a deep commitment to our families, a few friends, and then naturally extends to the marketplace and the whole world. 

This gathering produces a rich time of spiritual renewal; an opportunity to grow closer to Jesus and encourage one another to follow Him. Men and women from all ages and backgrounds unite to hear from great speakers, share their stories and grow in their faith. We hope you can join us. 

About the 2011 Weekend The 2011 Washington Weekend was Friday October 21st through Sunday the 23rd at The Enzian Inn in Leavenworth, Washington. This year our guest speaker was Dean Curry from Life Center Tacoma.  He is a great storyteller with a passion for reaching out to broken people wherever they may be found.

Our first session began Friday at 7:30 pm (4-8pm was registration), and we conclude at noon on Sunday. Sessions and meals are in a  setting. The format is casual and relaxed including sessions, two breakfast buffets, an afternoon of free time, Saturday night dinner and entertainment as well as time for sharing. Families are welcome (although childcare is not provided). This is a wonderful inter-generational time, with rich stories and fellowship that continues to strengthen our common beliefs and revitalize friendships.

New to the Weekend? Pre-registration is required. Come relax, play, pray, connect; come back refreshed and encouraged. Washington Weekend has been described as the best kind of family reunion.  Whether you're new or a regular, the weekend feels comfortable and is welcoming.  The Weekend activities are at the hotel, however you may want to explore the town or trails during free time so casual and warm attire is recommended. To find out more about the amenities at the Enzian Inn, please click here.
