2026 Men’s Retreat

Join Us for the 2026 Lakeway Men’s Retreat

Gentlemen,

On behalf of the Men’s Ministry Team, we warmly invite you—and any guests you’d like to bring—to the 2026 Lakeway Men’s Retreat, held at the beautiful Fort Parker State Park in Groesbeck, Texas.

This year’s theme, Deeper is a call to move beyond surface-level faith and into a growing, daily relationship with Jesus Christ. In a world full of noise, distraction, and demands, God invites us to slow down, listen, and allow Him to shape our hearts. As men, going deeper means surrendering control, strengthening our trust in God, and walking in authentic fellowship with one another. This retreat is an opportunity to step away from the ordinary, draw closer to the Lord, and be renewed as we pursue a faith that is rooted, mature, and firmly grounded in Christ.

The retreat is open to all men 18 and older who are out of high school. Whether this is your first retreat or a long-standing tradition, we believe this weekend will be a meaningful opportunity to step away from the busyness of life and reconnect with God in His creation.

You can look forward to a refreshing weekend filled with powerful worship, biblical teaching, honest conversation, and time for rest and reflection—all designed to help you grow deeper in your walk with Christ.

I will show you what it’s like when someone comes to Me, listens to My teaching, and then follows it. It is like a person building a house who digs deep and lays the foundation on solid rock. When the floodwaters rise and break against that house, it stands firm because it is well built.

Luke 6:47-48 (NLT)

VBS 2024

A summer kids’ event called Scuba VBS will be hosted at Lakeway from July 15th to July 19th. At Scuba, kids explore what it means to have a friendship with God! Kids participate in memorable Bible-learning activities, sing catchy songs, play teamwork-building games, devour yummy treats, experience one-of-a-kind Bible adventures, collect Bible Memory Buddies to remind them of God’s love, and test out sciency-fun experiments that get imagination bubbling. Plus, kids will learn to look for evidence of God all around them through something called God Sightings. Each day concludes with a Fin-tastic Finale that gets everyone involved in living what they’ve learned. 

Kids at Scuba VBS will join a missions effort to provide clean water for families in rural areas of Honduras.

Scuba is for kids who are Preschool ready 4 year-olds to entering 5th Grade and will run from 6:30pm to 9:00pm each day. For more information, contact kidsway@lakewayonline.org. Registration link is below.
