The Invitation
You will find rest for your soul
Abundant life - John 10:10
The invitation of Jesus still stands: ‘Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.’ Mark 6:31. The frantic pace of church leadership can be harmful to our souls. We need to step aside to be with Jesus. A unique encounter with the Father's love is waiting for us, which we are unlikely to receive in the business of everyday ministry.
We hope this website provides resources and the help you need. It is primarily designed for leaders, but there are resources here for everyone.
Our Soul Care Retreats come in several formats:
A residential Retreat for church leaders and senior leadership staff, supported by Vineyard Churches UK & Ireland.
Day Retreats for everyone. We are happy to lead a Retreat Day at your church.
Online one day Retreats for church leaders.
Please ask if you have any questions.
Souls Restored
"Life changing!"
"I wouldn't be here today (leading my church) if it wasn't for the Retreat."
"I believe this Retreat has made the biggest contribution to the sustainability our our leadership. It has catapulted me forward in experiences with the Holy Spirit and intimacy with Jesus."
— ELENA R., CHURCH LEADER
