Join us Monday May 7, from 8:30-4pm as we continue our 11th season of leaders days of rest and renewal.
What an awesome day! God spoke in so many ways. Thank you for
your commitment to make time for refreshment for leaders in our walk with Christ and in our ministries!"
Pastor of Community Life
Compass of Grace the Psalms
This year we ponder the leader’s journey with God as a continual cycle of orientation, disorientation, and reorientation of our selves in Christ. In life and ministry our interior path leads us through seasons of certainty… uncertainty and loss... and ever-deeper anchoring in our heart’s true home, Jesus.
Once again, the Book of Psalms, that ancient doctor of souls, will provide us with care as we listen for Jesus’ invitation to find new hope out of lament, new joy out of loss, and new life for a new day!
this time:
Reorientation — New Life for a New Day Psalms 23 & 116
New Location!
Our retreats this year take us back to the country! For many years a special feature of the Shepherds Day Away retreats was their beautiful rural setting. We've found a new location -- Shepherd's Hill Farm -- that takes us back to green pastures, crystal blue lakes, and winding country roads. Only 30 minutes south of the Twin Cities, it's more than worth the drive! Follow the link below to view the farm and for directions. |
