GBB National's Mission

Patterned after II Timothy 2:2, GBB's mission is to reach boys for Christ, instill Godly character through discipleship and mold them into Godly leaders in their family, their church and their community while encouraging men in their discipleship responsibilities.

For those that are not familiar with the GBB National Rendezvous, we tent camp for a week and have various training classes and fun events that will inform and challenge each of you. Each day will include a unit team devotional in the morning and a large camp devotional (Council Fire) in the evening. The other activities include swimming, canoeing, craft projects, gun safety, hiking, campfire cooking, fishing and several other activites taht are in teh planning stages.

Deadline!!!!!!
In order to accurately plan for Rendezvous activites we need to have all paperwork and registration fees received in teh GBB National Office by April 30, 2010. Each participant will need to complete teh following GBB National Forms that can be found on our web site, http://www.gbbnational.com/gbb_forms.htm
- National Event Registration Form
- Medical Permission Form
- Event Permission Slip

As a reminder, Rendezvous Events are for GBB National REGISTERED men and boys, age eight and older. This means that all men and boys who plan to attend Rendezvous must be included on the unit's annual registration forms. Boys younger than eight may attend Rendezvous but they must have a male legal guardian attend Rendezvous with them. Any requests for exceptions to those requirements must be communicated to GBB National for approval. Please keep current with the GBB web site and your e-mail for updates!

We hope every unit is making plans to attend this great discipleship event!

Thanks!
