ESM Retreat is an opportunity for all of us to reflect and learn. By hearing other perspectives, experiences, and ideas we can enrich our own lives as well.
-
Reflection
This year’s theme is Be A Witness: Power to Change. We will be reflecting together about the power that we receive from the Spirit, which propels us to bear witness to that power.
-
Message
We receive power when the Spirit comes upon us. That power is the power to change. We are witnesses to that power.
-
Community
This is our one opportunity each year to go away as a congregation. Enjoy the bonding and connection with community, and enjoy the beautiful nature of Muskoka!
Retreat Pricing
We believe this much in the importance of the retreat that we have invested a large budget for it. We believe this is the one time where we can gather as a community to reflect on our spirituality and deepen bonds with one another. We want you there!
*We’ve kept prices the same as last year for Hi-C and Kids Church*
If you're registering as a family, only ONE registration form is required!
