"Hooked on Jesus" Youth Fishing Event Set for August 9 in West Mansfield

Free Event Offers Fun, Faith, and Fishing for Kids Ages 6–12

Families are invited to bring their young anglers to a special new community event, “Hooked on Jesus Youth Fishing,” happening on Saturday, August 9, 2025, from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the Romans 1:20 Christian Retreat & Environmental Education Center, located at 1041 County Road 142, West Mansfield.

This free event is open to children ages 6 to 12 and combines outdoor education with faith-based fun. Kids will rotate through interactive learning stations to discover how to:

🎣 Set up and cast a fishing pole
🐟 Identify fish and understand fish habitats
✝️ Learn about Jesus, the ultimate “Fisher of Men”

At the end of the session, each child will receive a new fishing rod, reel, lures, and more—all for free! Families will also have the opportunity to fish together at the retreat’s two fully stocked ponds.

While there is no cost to attend, pre-registration is required.
