Hi friends,
After much prayer and discussion by our leadership team, Pastor Freddy and Kris Swiatocho, it is with great sadness that we have decided to cancel this year's Vision 2020 Labor Day Retreat.
The uncertainties that are related to COVID-19 infections have increased both in NC and globally. That and the increasing safety requirements by Bonclarken Conference Center, North Carolina mandates, and the CDC make it difficult for us to be able to 100% ensure your safety and ours.
We know this is disappointing news, and it has been an incredibly challenging decision for us to make. However, we believe that it is the right decision at this time. Thank you for your understanding and prayers!
Registration and refunds: You have the option to receive a full refund, or to make a donation of all or part of any payments you’ve made. As you can imagine, we have had expenses in preparation for this year's retreat, and we would normally use our registration income towards those expenses. Note: we plan to begin making refunds in the coming days. So please let us know if you would like to make a donation from your refund. If you do need a donation receipt for tax purposes, please let us know at singleslabordayexperience@gmail.com.
A big THANK YOU! Thanks go to everyone who has volunteered and signed up for this and past Labor Day Retreats. Thank you also to our amazing team of leaders. We could not accomplish our goals to bring people from all over the country to this special weekend, without the efforts of everyone involved. Thank you for your help in leading, volunteering, registering, participating, praying … and the list goes on. We look forward to your support and prayers as we begin planning for 2021!
Good News: We have secured the Labor Day weekend dates for 2021 for Bonclarken (Sept 3-6th (leaders portion one-day prior). Look for more information through email, our website, and our Facebook page this fall as we start to plan for 2021.

I have been coming to the Labor Day Weekend Retreat for 6 years. I simply love it! Each year I learn something new. I especially love the teaching sessions including the leadership portion. God speaks to me and my life changes. If you have never joined us, make 2020 the year to come!
