A DAY APART: A MINI RETREAT SERIES
Come & set aside intentional times throughout the year to rest with God.
Welcome to a Day Apart Retreat!
We have been holding these retreats alongside the church seasons for years & have loved the rhythm & community it brings.
These days have been set aside for you to be with God in an environment of quiet restfulness. Each retreat day has a theme & a reflection guide to accompany you in your time with God. The retreat facilitators may be different each time, but are always trained Christian spiritual directors. These days coincide with the church seasons as you experience the story of your life enfolded in God’s story of salvation.

“In addition to this being my first PAX event, my first time back in a church in three years, it was also my first experience of a silent retreat. And you know what? I loved it…”

Lenten Day Apart Retreat:
$25/Lenten Prayer Guide
Retreat Theme: Beloved: Rest, Release, Renew
The familiar words of Matthew 11 are the invitation from God to “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” As Christians, we don’t release our burdens to a void, but to an infinitely loving God. This process of releasing is a relational one where we are invited to remain and draw near to a God who loves us. As the season of Lent continues, use this prayer guide to draw close to God and notice any invitations to release, not just the heavy burdens, but anything you’d like to place in God’s hands to hold, as we prepare for the celebration of Easter together.

What draws her to this work is the practice and privilege of listening for God's voice together. In any season of life, she enjoys creating spaces to pay attention to how the Spirit is moving and speaking, especially during times of transition or discernment.
