Welcome Gentlemen!

The Men of North Shore Church are excited to host our first Superior Section Men’s Retreat. Happening Friday October 23 - Sunday 25, 2026, we will bring men from Wawa, Marathon, Manitouwadge, and Terrace Bay together to Encourage one another, Worship, Read the Word of God, Reflect, Eat Wings, and Have some fun too.

The Theme: “Keep Walking” 🚶🏽‍♂️

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.
And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly and to
Love mercy and to
Walk humbly with your God.
- Micah 6:8

Determining the will of God in your life can feel like a burden or complicating weight of responsibility. Men of God are up to the challenge to serve, to lead, to follow, to fix, to be present, and so on, But how do we know God’s will? Well, one of the answers is “Keep Walking”. We are empowered by the Spirit to Act Justly Love Mercy, and Walk Humble with our God.

Join us at the end of October to discover your purpose and refine your walk with God.

Speakers and Guests

This is an “everyone In” kind of event. We are leveraging our local people to make this weekend happen. Each of our pastors from Manitouwadge, Wawa, and Terrace Bay are gong to share in the speaking and worship leading. On Sunday morning, we are excited to welcome Pastor Jeremy Murdoch, the Northern Regional Director for WOD, join us as our closing speaker and special guest.
