2023 Retreat Schedule
Return to the 2023 Retreat homepage
Our schedule is designed to allow participants to build meaningful relationships, learn from experienced business leaders, and take time out from their regular routines to reflect on the implications of the beauty of God, and of God's creation, for our work.
Running throughout the retreat will be our Prayer Zone, where you can pray confidentially with fellow participants.
