HEARTS ON FIRE
MEN’S RETREAT NERRIGA
10-12 APRIL 2026
In continuing our series of men’s retreats at Rob Fuller’s Belltana property in Nerriga, we bring two special guest speakers, with a timely message for all men.
Rob has spoken to each of the speakers and was greatly impressed by the messages for the men of today. He was so impressed he is offering a money back guarantee if the message doesn't hit the mark.
One of the speakers is Mark Soper who is from the Salvation Army Sutherland Shire. His message relates to a story about one the Bali Nine members, Andrew Chan. Mark and Andrew were close friends growing up as kids, and later, Mark played a key role in journeying with Andrew in the lead up to his court case and ultimately imprisonment. Mark spent time with Andrew and his father over Andrew's nine years in prison until his execution in 2015. Andrew's father observed Andrew being executed by firing squad. Mark brings a sobering and enlightening message of forgiveness from a completely left field position. Mark will leave a message of forgiveness through biblical stories, verses and parables.
Our other speaker, Geoff Thompson is the Senior Minister of All Saints Anglican church in Nowra. Geoff will also bring a focus on forgiveness from different perspectives. Mark and Geoff aim to intertwine their presentations while maintaining the primary focus on the bible’s teaching.
The weekend includes a kick off dinner at Nerriga Pub, meals on the property, 6 key sessions, with small group discussion, quiet time for reflection and activities, depending on weather, plus the gathering around the fireplace.
