29th Feb – 3rd March 2024 Behold Your God, Part 1 Tony & Jilly Horsfall
The book of Isaiah is one of the largest in the entire Bible, and it is not always easy to understand. Yet it is packed with good things! Not only is it full of Jesus, with many passages pointing to him at the Servant of the Lord and coming Messiah, but it also calls us to enlarge our view of God so that we see him as the Sovereign Lord whose purposes are being worked out despite the opposition of the nations. As we read his beautiful words, hope rises within us as we are reminded that ‘the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea (11:9).’
This retreat will draw together many of the wonderful themes in Isaiah in such a way that you will be humbled, encouraged, inspired, refreshed and envisioned for the days ahead. For those in full-time ministry, at home or overseas.
NB It is not necessary to attend both parts of this retreat as they will cover different material.

4-8 November 2024 – Rhythms of Grace with Tony & Jilly Horsfall
Given all the pressures that leaders are under nowadays, it is not surprising that many are seeking a more contemplative approach to ministry. This retreat will explore the 3 main streams in Christianity – the evangelical, charismatic and contemplative – to see how they can work together. With practical examples, we will learn about stillness, silence and solitude, and learn to practice reflection, Bible meditation and contemplation.
