Have you ever longed for a weekend with nothing on your calendar, only to find every weekend gets filled? Scheduling a retreat is a way to ensure nothing interrupts your time to let God care for you.
Why Retreat? Why Now?
This fall, we’ve been exploring our Prayer Toolkit. A retreat creates space in our lives to practice what we’re learning and to engage in an extended conversation with God. Whether you’ve participated in the Prayer Toolkit series or not, everyone will benefit from this time of reflection and connection.
What to Expect
Friday Night | 7:00–8:30 PM
Take a deep breath and shift into retreat mode. This is a time to settle in, drink a cuppa, listen to your heart’s desire and to explore prayers—whether from the Christian tradition or new ones—that can support and guide that desire.
Saturday | 10:00 AM–4:00 PM
Morning: We will enter the day with intentional awareness of what we hope to discuss with God, guided by reflective exercises.
Afternoon:
Listening Circle as a time to learn or practice listening to God within yourself and in others. You may choose to speak or simply listen.
Together, we discern how what we’ve reflected on can shape our lives. How can we apply these insights in our homes, workplaces, and daily leadership? What might God be inviting us to do to live more fully alive for the sake of the world?
What to Bring
Friday Night:
- Comfy clothes, maybe a journal and pen for capturing thoughts and reflections
