Faithfulness, longevity, and fidelity are nurtured through a personal state of wellness – issuing out of a vital relationship with Jesus Christ. The SPE initiative encourages ministers to consider nurturing this relationship through a retreat experience designed to encourage healthy patterns and habits of renewal.
Visit the “Retreats” tab of this resource page for suggestions of places to retreat, or consider applying for a space on the spring Re-visioning Retreat this May. Visit www.covchurch.org/spe/constancy for more information about grant funding for retreats, or to download an application for the re-visioning retreat.
