Attention Along the Way
January 18, 2022 from 9am – 3pm
Eldon wrote the book, Spiritual Formation: Attention Along the Way. It will be given to each attender as a gift. Attentiveness is challenging in a hurried, fast-paced world, so this Day Away will focus on noticing the wonder around us and mindfulness of our surroundings and how God may be speaking from nature, experiences and our daily life that continues to shape and form our spiritual lives.
Register by January 11 to reserve you spot at the retreat center. $55.00 includes a day at the Waugh Wilson House, worship, lunch, silence, a reading and sharing with others on the journey.

Resilient Leadership
March 15, 2022 from 9am – 3pm
Marcus Warner and Jim Wilder teamed up to write RARE Leadership: 4 Uncommon Habits for Increasing Trust, Joy and Engagement in the People You Lead to challenge us to habits that strengthen our ability to relate to those we lead and build resiliency when facing the struggles of our communities.
This retreat will provide opportunity for pastor/leaders to engage the habits that build R.A.R.E. qualities in our leadership.
Register by March 8 to reserve you spot at the retreat center. $55.00 includes a day at the Waugh Wilson House, worship, lunch, silence, a reading and sharing with others on the journey.
