Retreats

It is important for people in pastoral leadership to have regular spiritual retreats – such as a few days in isolation, or focused spiritual direction beyond their normal ministry context. These can be times of refreshment and clear focus on God.

The Centre for Lifelong Learning recommends the list of organisations and venues below for publicly available retreats that may suit your individual or group needs. Alternatively, you could contact a spiritual director who is affiliated with the Association of Christian Spiritual Directors who may be able to assist with planning a retreat. https://acsd.org.nz/
