The Christian Education Committee is excited to invite you all to our first intergenerational mini retreat to be held on Saturday April 5, 2025 from 10 a.m.
to 1 p.m. in the Parish Hall. The theme of the retreat will be Teach us to Pray and we have planed activities for all ages so please come and bring your children and young people. The retreat will be led by Gayle Kerr, a member of our congregation and a certified Spiritual Director and Valerie Jansson who will be leading the children’s time. Coffee, tea, and refreshments will be supplied.
The theme of our retreat was inspired by the passage in Luke 11:1 in which one of Jesus’ disciples says to Jesus, “Lord, teach us to pray…”and Jesus proceeds to teach them the Lord’s prayer. If the disciples can ask for help in learning how to pray, then we can too. Prayer is such an important part of our Christian faith yet many do not feel confident in their ability to pray. If you feel that way, or have questions about the “right” way to pray, then this is the retreat for you. Come, bring your prayers, your questions about prayer, your joys of answered prayer, and share them all with your fellow pray-errs. We are all on this faith journey together and we can all learn from and teach each other.
Space is limited so please sign up in the Parish Hall or call or email either Pastor John or Wendy at the church office to register for this retreat by March 15, 2025.
