18-21 March 2027 ENCOUNTERING JESUS: Grace for every season Jack & Sandra Telfer
Come aside and be with Jesus as we consider our life journey and increase our confidence in him. Using a selection of gospel stories we meet Jesus in a variety of life situations as he reveals what God is really like. There will be space to stop and be – to meet him where we really are. The retreat will not be silent but through a variety of facilitated sessions will provide space for individual reflection, prayer and time to rest in the lovely environment of Penhurst. There will be opportunity for individual time with Jack and/or Sandra during the retreat.
19-22 April 2027 WALKING WITH GOD Tony & Jilly Horsfall
For those in church leadership or serving overseas.
What does the Christian life look like? One helpful way to understand it is to think of it as a walk with God through the changing scenes of life, and as someone described it, ‘a Long obedience in the same direction.’
This retreat will explore what it means to walk with God over the course of a lifetime, looking at such significant themes as:
- The invitation to walk with God; Walking in the Spirit; Walking in love
- Walking in the light; Walking by faith
As well as times of reflective worship and Bible teaching, there will be plenty of time to rest and be with God, and to apply what we are learning in a personal way. Opportunity will be given for spiritual accompaniment if that is desired.
