Respite in the Wilderness
A gift from NovusWay to rostered ministers and church professionals: a midweek retreat of rest and renewal before Lent, with prayer, study, and meals somebody else cooks.
Respite in the Wilderness is NovusWay’s gift to the people who run everyone else’s Lent.
It is a midweek retreat of rest and renewal through prayer and study, before the busy season starts. Rev. Derek Hoven, Assistant to the Bishop, leads our time together, with room for introverts and extroverts and still plenty of time to rest.
There is quiet, there is solitude, and there are meals you did not have to plan.
January 12–14.
Not sure you can get away midweek? It comes before Lent gets busy, which is rather the point of the timing.
