Ideal for: Ministers and their church leaders | Ages: All Ages | 2020: April 23-25
We invite you to enjoy creation with us and worship the One who Creates.
Escape into Outdoor Adventure
This 3-day outdoor adventure getaway is the perfect opportunity for ministers and their leaders to take some time away from home and the everyday stresses that surround leading a congregation, for spiritual refreshment, decompression and a chance to get deeper with God.
Real One-On-One Time With God and Family
Pastoring can be stressful. No matter if you’re an assistant pastor of a church of 40 or a lead pastor of a church of 4,000, shepherding the people of God can take a toll on your mind and your body. Aren’t you always available to listen and to offer spiritual advice for those in need? Pastors need vacation and counseling too, and oftentimes the opportunity for pastors to recharge is not available or affordable. Whatever situation you find yourself in as a leader, finding time for intimacy with God and your marriage are necessities. Our adventure retreats are specially designed for pastors and their families to take some time away from home, because paying attention to your personal spiritual wellbeing is crucial for a healthy relationship with God.
Bring 3 For Free
We’re excited to offer another “3 For Free” Minister’s Escape! Bring any three from your ministry for free. Use it as a time to get away, to plan with teammates, to enjoy our activities, to meet others in various ministries, to escape into the mountains for some adventure or solitude. This time is YOUR time, and we are here to serve you however we can.
TOTALLY FLEXIBLE
Your retreat is totally flexible so that you can get the most relaxation out of your trip. Feel free to participate in as much or as little of what we have planned as you like. The important thing is that you relax, unwind and spend time with God – whether alone or in a group. We just want you to be spiritually and physically refreshed.
Excursions
You can spend all three days of your retreat nestled in the seclusion of Glorieta and all it has to offer. Or, you can venture off for an afternoon in historic Santa Fe, just a short drive from camp.
Santa Fe is among the oldest cities in the United States, with a vast history and unique mix of art and culture. Set some time aside to visit Santa Fe and attend one of its many festivals, markets, galleries or concerts.
