Looking back at April's Discovering Renewal retreat at Montreat

What happened at Discovering Renewal last month? - Immediately following the busy Lenten and Easter season, over 50 people gathered in Montreat for the third installment of our popular Sabbath-seeking retreat, Discovering Renewal. Over the course of three days, participants engaged in a variety of activity tracks and found time for reflection, study, and rest. Curious what it was like to attend? Below, we’ve highlighted a few of our favorite moments.
*We used God’s creation as inspiration for our creative endeavors. *Thanks to a new optional Sabbath day, participants were able to arrive early and get settled. *We visited breweries, played games together, and sang songs by the campfire. * We found the courage to try new things supported and encouraged by others. *We dipped our toes in some chilly water. (But Brian McLaren still managed to catch a massive trout!) *We stretched our spiritual and physical muscles! *Adventurers explored whole new worlds in our new track that focused on tabletop role playing games. *We caught up with old friends and made plenty of new ones!
Experience renewal for yourself! - Join us next year! We will gather April 22–25, 2025, to continue seeking renewal through activity. We hope you will consider participating! Registration for next year’s retreat is now open and additional information can be found on our website.
