Based on insights from John 4 where Jesus took a rest at Jacob’s well, Tony will share and teach how to operate form a place of physical, emotional and spiritual rest.

An extended version of Jack & Sandra`s popular Grace Space retreat specifically for those involved with overseas mission. An opportunity to step aside to be with `the God of all grace`, to meet with Him where we really are in our life and ministry and to receive the deep refreshment that only He can give. As we approach the throne of grace we can find grace that underpins all we do, helps us to be free from the weight of expectations and reminds us of our true identity. There will be time to reflect on God`s grace that enables and sustains us in the work we are called to.

29th Feb – 3rd March 2024 Behold Your God, Part 1 Tony & Jilly Horsfall
The book of Isaiah is one of the largest in the entire Bible, and it is not always easy to understand. Yet it is packed with good things! Not only is it full of Jesus, with many passages pointing to him at the Servant of the Lord and coming Messiah, but it also calls us to enlarge our view of God so that we see him as the Sovereign Lord whose purposes are being worked out despite the opposition of the nations. As we read his beautiful words, hope rises within us as we are reminded that ‘the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea (11:9).’
This retreat will draw together many of the wonderful themes in Isaiah in such a way that you will be humbled, encouraged, inspired, refreshed and envisioned for the days ahead. For those in full-time ministry, at home or overseas.
NB It is not necessary to attend both parts of this retreat as they will cover different material.
