SUMMARY:Brush Harbor Retreat for Clergy of Color
DESCRIPTION:Ministry is demanding\, and being a spiritual leader of color ups the ante. Imagine a retreat designed exclusively for you to fuel your ministry and your life. Renew yourself in a few short days and be back in church on Sunday with tools to be a healthier and happier you. Come enter a world of awe and wonder. Shake off stress among the nation’s tallest trees\, soaring over 100 feet high\, in forest as far as you can see. Or splash in the coastal waters of Lake Michigan at the retreat’s private beach. Celebrating 100 years offering sanctuary to clergy\, Tower Hill offers guided nature hikes\, a labyrinth for quiet reflection\, 30 acres of winding trails\, bar-b-Que grills at every building and fire pits with wood for laugh-out-loud conversations\, roasting Smores and more.\n\nThe retreat will take place October 3-5\, 2024 at Tower Hill Camp in Sawyer\, MI. Learn more and register online here.\n\nThanks to the generosity of sponsors\, the cost to clergy\, lay leaders and seminary students is only $150.00. That’s less than the price of a one-night stay! Yet\, you get 2 days and 2 nights of lodging\, meals\, workshops\, reflection time in nature and bonding with your tribe!\n\nLIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE - DON'T WAIT TO SIGN-UP!
