The weekend ran from Friday evening (dinner provided) to Sunday noon (Lunch provided).

It consisted of a series of talks relating to the theme followed by small group discussions and summary plenary sessions. There are liberal injections of music and some free time. Hearty meals are provided on a regular schedule.

For many attendees the small group discussions are the heart of the weekend. Men who are often strangers on Friday evening are friends by Sunday. The opportunity to share ones experience with others who also understand your concerns can be enlightening. Confidentiality is stressed. Spiritual support is always close at hand.

Following each talk/small group discussion, all attendees gather in the main hall to share highlights of their discussions as agreed by the groups. There may be a request to the speaker to clarify a particular point. Some attendees may identify how a particular point was particularly relevant to them.

Sunday morning is a Eucharist with the final talk as the sermon followed by the small group discussion. We get a somewhat unique opportunity to discuss a sermon in the middle of the service.
