Sabbatical Retreat
Saturday, August 8th, 9-3, breakfast and lunch included.
Note from Rod Echols:
Friends, let's prepare the way for Pastor Greg's return in style and
with the help of God! This retreat is a unique opportunity to hit
“pause” on our daily rhythms and gather together to be encouraged,
equipped, and strengthened in our faith. We know there’s a lot to
coordinate – from rescheduling Saturday meetings and commitments, to
sharing the news with your loved ones, and giving up the bulk of your
Saturday. We encourage you to give your concerns for the day to the
Holy Spirit, put on your creative hat, bring your singing voice, and
join us in the following:
1) Begin praying for the day.
2) Register in advance, so we know to expect you at the 9AM breakfast.
3) Invite all CCP members and friends to join you for a fun,
energizing, and meaningful experience. Music included!
4) Rest easy knowing we'll serve lunch.
5) Familiarize yourself with the scripture for the day, Romans 12: 1-18.
6) Some of the questions I want us to ask are: How should an
understanding of the greatness of God affect our everyday lives? How
do we put down fear and worry? What do we mean when we utter the
words "small church?" Is all hope lost?
I hope that some of these questions will be answered for you as we
spend time together.
7) Email or call the CCP office if you have any questions, concerns,
or barriers.
Excited for all that God will do through us!
