Fellowship In The Woods

Welcome to the Fellowship in the Woods, an event graciously hosted by the Woodsrunner School!

This gathering serves as a sanctuary for both seasoned outdoor enthusiasts and those just beginning their journey into the natural world. Inspired by the wisdom found in the Book of Hebrews, which encourages us to "Help Each Other Be Strong" (Hebrews 10:24-25),

"Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near."

Our aim is to foster unity and mutual support among participants.

Join us for a weekend escape, a respite from the hectic pace of daily life, and immerse yourself in a variety of enriching experiences:

• Meet Our Instructors & Fellow Participants: Familiarize yourself with our experienced instructors and connect with like-minded individuals from diverse educational backgrounds and locations. Share stories, experiences, and a mutual passion for the great outdoors.
• Wilderness Skills Challenges: Immerse yourself in the expertise of seasoned wilderness and self-reliance professionals. Participate in wilderness skill challenges for an opportunity to secure prizes.
• Hay Ride: Take delight in a scenic hayride through the landscapes surrounding the Woodsrunner School. Revel in the beauty of nature while sharing memorable moments.
• Time for Prayer, Praise, and Worship: Dedicate moments to personal reflection, prayer, and bonding with others who share your faith amidst the serene woods.
• Campfire Music & Movie Night: Gather around the campfire beneath the starry sky for an evening filled with music and movies. It's the perfect way to unwind and connect with fellow participants.
• Children's Activities (Ages 5-11): We offer a diverse array of wilderness activities, campfire songs, and engaging stories to keep the little ones entertained and involved.
• Bacon Cook-Off: If you fancy yourself a bacon maestro, showcase your culinary talents in our bacon cook-off and vie for the chance to win remarkable prizes. 
• Trade & Sale of Your Goods & Wares: If you have gear that you no longer need or desire, bring it along to sell or barter with others for their items. It's a great opportunity to exchange and trade for items you may find more useful or appealing.
