Retreats and Conferences
Retreats and conferences are an opportunity to set aside time to spend with God without all the normal responsiblities and demands of our everyday life. Sometimes all you need is some added space to catch your breath and regroup, while at other times you may be longing for direction and guidance. With you in mind, we're designing space to help you be more intentional and attentive to God in your life.
Fall Workshop: Listening to God with Others
Spiritual Friendships & Mentoring
When? Saturday, October 16, 2010
Time? 9:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. (doors open at 8:30 for coffee and light refreshments)
Place? Grace Community Church
Often we have the privilege, either in the role of a spiritual mentor or as a friend, to help others listen for God as he works in their life. When we listen with our ears, eyes, heart and mind we can encourage others to be more attentive and responsive to God. This workshop is designed for both women who long to be mentored and those who would like to mentor others as we learn to listen to God. As our featured speaker, we’ve invited Sibyl Towner, former director of spiritual mentoring of Willow Creek Church, co-author of Listen to My Life and co-founder of OneLifeMaps, a ministry geared at spiritual growth and meaningful action.
Come and enjoy time with God as we participate in worship with Amy Snow and engage in learning and life application. It doesn’t matter whether you’ve been following Christ for years or are just beginning to explore a life of faith, this day promises to encourage and challenge you toward deeper understanding and intimacy with God.
