What is the state of your soul? Is it weary or energetic, depleted or vibrant? We work hard, run fast, and are addicted to noise and activity. As a result, we rarely create the margin in our lives to consider our spiritual health. I want to encourage you to step out of your busy life and join me and others for a weekend specifically focused on renewing our souls.On October 16-18 (Fri-Sun), we are having our first PR1ME Soul Care Retreat held at the Aliso Creek Inn. This retreat is open to a maximum of 9 people. This mini-retreat is intended for those who need to disconnect from the busyness of life to connect with God through solitude, silence, prayer, meditation on the Word and worship. While the main focus of the retreat will be your individual time with God (in prayer, silence and solitude), moments of corporate worship, fellowship and sharing will be interspersed throughout the weekend.
My desire is to offer you an opportunity to spend some time away from your daily grind and retreat with the intentions of furthering your intimacy with God. I want to set a culture in our PR1ME ministry where intimacy with God is promoted and cultivated. This retreat is just one way of reaching this goal.
If you are interested, please email me and secure your place for this retreat. Again, I am limiting this retreat to only 9 people. If you don’t get your chance, I am planning to offer this retreat again some time in late January.
The cost of the retreat is $40. This will include your 2 nights and 3 days stay at the Aliso Creek Inn (www.alisocreekinn.com) and all your meals.
What to bring: Bible, journal and pen.
What not to bring: In order for us to engage in and cultivate the discipline of silence, rest, solitude and simplicity, I would like for us to refrain from using the following items – especially the electronic devices and leave these devices behind. (Laptop, PDA, recreational reading, ipod, camera and anything else that will distract you.)
Blessings,
Pastor David Kim
