Though the weather on the Atlantic oceanfront this Monday evening was windy, cold, and nasty, there was warm fellowship inside the Holiday Inn Oceanside as pastors and church leaders gathered for the first session of the East Focus Retreat in Ocean City, Maryland.
The retreat is being led by FGBC moderators John McIntosh and Tom Hocking, focusing primarily on the book of 2 Timothy. The retreat is one of five regional focus retreats held throughout the year. The next one is in southern California in January, followed by Florida in February and northwest in May.
