Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.
– Matthew 11:28
Jesus said to them, “Let us go away to a quiet place all and rest a while.”
– Mark 6:31
Come and pause awhile with this page. Consider the pictures one by one. As you gaze at each picture, what attracts your heart’s attention? Continue gazing at one of the pictures. As you gently look at the picture, how does that image intersect the longing of your heart? Let your spirit sink deeply into God’s presence as you gaze upon the pictures. What invitation is God giving you? That is an invitation to do, or be something.
Retreats are an intentional opportunity to experience and expand relationship with God, to take a long loving look at what is most real – God’s presence. They provide opportunity to look inward for increased self-awareness and build community by knitting hearts together in Christ.
“It is one thing to be told what God is like;
it could be another thing altogether to discover
the truth for ourselves!”
– Marjorie J. Thompson
