“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out…? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life.” – Matthew 10:28

While rooted in the Christian faith, this retreat welcomes leaders from all faith traditions. Leaders who have spent the last 2 years zooming, streaming, and pivoting, who have not been able to go on retreat due to lock downs and physical distancing and who just need a few days where nothing is expected of them.

Tanya Dyck Steinman, Five Oaks’ Settler Program Coordinator, will offer just enough guidance on this retreat to ensure that you have ample time to do what you need. This time is yours to tend your own soul.

Tanya is also available for spiritual direction.

Here is What to Expect
• A small, relaxed event with a group of community-oriented ministers.
• A retreat pace with generous space for walking the land or sitting by the Grand River, sleeping, or not doing anything at all.
• Opportunities for spiritual renewal: silent contemplation, labyrinth, guided meditation, expressive art, and time to play.
• Honest conversations with others on a similar journey.
• Delicious meals and comfortable accommodations.
• Add on an extra night or two to extend your retreat until Friday November 4th. (Food can be purchased in the nearby town of Paris).
