The theme for this year's retreat is Makeover 09, as Inga-Lil Guzik will come from Siegen, Germany and teach from Ezekiel about God taking our heart of stone and giving us a heart of flesh and giving life to our dry bones.

 Makeover 09 will be held from May 1st to May 3rd (Friday to Sunday) in Vaxholm, a scenic location about 45 minutes outside Stockholm. You can see more pictures of the surroundings and find more information at their website: www.bogesundsslottsvandrarhem.se.
