When did you last make something with your hands, with no goal but to see what would come of it? Create In Me is a retreat for adults that sets art and faith side by side and makes space for God’s creativity to flow in and through everyone who comes.

This spring’s theme is Holy Ordinary Vessels, and the making happens at the pottery wheel. What could clay shaped by your own hands teach you about God’s work in your life? Pastor Cassie Overcash leads the weekend’s reflections on the wedding at Cana, a story of God’s abundance and of ordinary things transformed. Around the wheel, we’ll talk about creation, humility, and purpose, and about how our cracks and uneven shapes become part of the stories we carry and the grace we offer the world.

Visiting artists teach hands-on workshops and are glad to share what they know, and creativity stations stay ready for you between sessions. Guided reflections, daily devotions, and worship tie the making back to prayer, and the conversation around the tables is part of the retreat too.

You don’t need any experience. The retreat is built for beginners and practiced artists alike, so come curious and leave the pressure at home. It all happens in the outdoor setting of camp, with comfortable lodging and good meals taken care of while you’re here.

Stay in a double or single room, or join us as a commuter.
