What is the description for my event?
Our aim is to mobilize, equip, and deploy influential faith-based leaders based in the Inland Empire to enhance their impact within their local spheres of influence. Workshops and lessons will include spiritual disciplines, contemplative practices, and more. This sacred time of reflection, equipping, and guiding will also include a morning ascension of Mt. Rubidoux in Riverside, CA. Registration will include an overnight stay, three meals, and more.
Why is my event needed?
Faith-based leaders contend with a host of external and internal factors that can disrupt their effectiveness. Mental health and self-care are essential. We meet leaders at the intersection of spiritual decompression and recalibration. We exist to nurture times for rest, aid in establishing rhythms of life, and encourage spiritual growth. In short, wonderful spiritual retreat locations exist in picturesque natural settings, however, urban retreat destinations designed for individual times of prayer, fasting, worship, meditation, and digital detoxification are chronically limited.
Who is Spiritual Direction for?
We stand in full agreement with Dr. Alexander’s following spiritual direction position as it relates to spiritual direction in this context:
“Those who desire to grow in their faith journey. Those who long to discern the voice of God and grow closer to God. It is most beneficial for those who are already established in the essential knowledge and practice of the Christian life.”
We look forward to embarking on this journey alongside you.
