Well, spring is upon us, and Duane and I are transitioning from leaves and limbs back to grass cutting once again. Duane has all of our equipment in good working order for the busy days ahead on the mowers and using the weed eaters, hedge trimmers, and blowers.
During our prayer time before we start work each day, we have been praising our LORD and SAVIOR for all HE has been doing here at the Mann Center!! From increased facility usage, renovation projects being completed, increased inquiries for potential usage, and our consistent users, GOD has truly blessed us in this ministry.
Reservations are up from this time last year, and we still have all of our RV hook-ups rented, at least, until the end of this year. We are looking forward to the spring and summer months, especially, as Duane and I like all of the activity out here during that time of year. There’s our very own Camp “I AM” in July along with a couple of other camps, plus weekend retreats, family reunions, weddings, and other activities already scheduled.
Feel free to stop by for a visit when you have time. We enjoy sharing this ministry with all our ORBA members. Just please call before you come, so we can make sure we are on the property to greet you.
Please continue to remember us in your prayers, and thank you for all of your support—financially and materially. We are continually blessed and grateful to be able to serve the association in the positions you have entrusted us with. GOD bless you all.

Nestled in the woods on the outskirts of Brooklet, Georgia on approximately 75 acres, you will find the W. W. Mann Retreat and Conference Center. As a ministry of the Ogeechee River Baptist Association, the Mann Center provides a serene, isolated and worshipful atmosphere for all that come. Whether you just want to get away for a day picnic, a weekend getaway, or a longer stay, the Mann Center is the place for you.
The Mann Center has overnight cabins that sleep up to 25 people, a small dining hall/meeting room that will accommodate approximately 60 guests, a larger dining hall/meeting room that will seat approximately 170 people, a chapel that can hold approximately 100 worshipers, a lodge with private rooms, a gazebo, and an amphitheater.
The Mann Center also has 2 fishing ponds (no fishing license required), a creek for fishing, and a swimming pond. Other recreational options include: a full size basketball court, regulation volleyball court, horse shoe pits, an athletic field, and a large playground.
We like to think that the Mann Center is a “little piece of heaven” where folks can get away from the “hustle and bustle” of everyday life and relax, meditate, pray, or just “recoup” from the stress and strain of our fast-paced society.
We have PLENTY of firewood available here, so if any of you need any just call me (912-531-2946).
We thank God from whom all blessings flow, and HE has truly blessed us here at the Mann Center.
We still cherish your prayers and support.
