Rest, play, and learn with other V3 planters, pastors, and leaders in the lovely Paradise Valley at the Franciscan Renewal Center nestled between the majestic Camelback and Mummy Mountains. 

Leading missionally can be difficult and exhausting on many levels - spiritually, relationally, physically, emotionally. This retreat is a space to rest in solitude and connect with others who understand the challenges you experience. There will be 4 group sessions where Dan and Jessie (see descriptions below) will guide us into exploring the pain that we have accumulated in ministry leadership as well as the possibiliites that may be emerging. There will be loads of time to rest and relax - take a nap, read a book, enjoy the pool/spa, hang out with a friend, walk the prayer labryinth, take a hike. 

This is going to be a really renewing time together.
