Encore

2023 marks NBC’s 32nd Annual Encore Retreat - a retreat designed for those who are age 55+. Each year our retreat brings with it the anticipation of renewing acquaintances and making new friends. These retreats are designed so that personal refreshment and spiritual renewal are blended with learning and fellowship in a very relaxed atmosphere.

Speaker: Richard Friedt

Richard serves as faculty with Nipawin Bible College. Richard came to NBC after serving as a pastor for eleven years. As a pastor, he recognized the value of Bible College training in preparing young men and women to serve and lead in their local churches, and he is excited to now be teaching in a school that supports and contributes to the Church in this way. He believes that NBC is an exceptional setting for students to grow in their love and knowledge of God as they are equipped and made ready for every good work.

Richard and his wife, Janet, have three grown children and ten grandchildren. They enjoy travelling, the great outdoors, and a good cup of coffee with friends.

Bring along an instrument, your singing voice, a ventriloquist puppet, or whatever else you need to showcase your talent. Spend some time together sharing the talents God has given you and developed over the years.

Get a taste of what it means to be a student at Nipawin Bible College. Spend a "Morning in the Classroom" with one of NBC's instructors as you get a taste of NBC's academic programs.

Eli Barsi is originally a prairie girl from southeastern Saskatchewan Canada. Eli’s music features a Western Roots blend of Canadiana Country & Folk.
