New England Home Fellowship Group Pastors' Retreat
Net2Church Global Ministries is sponsoring the first Home Fellowship Groups of New England conference and retreat. This retreat is for all who are engaged in leading home fellowship ministries of any type, but is particularly for those acting as home fellowship pastors and their spouses and for those that they invite, as well as for those seeking to minister with these groups.
The purpose of this gathering is to help these pastors to develop relationships throughout New England with other home fellowship pastors, and to share their vision and testimonies with others for home fellowship ministry in general.
Spring of 2007 (Exact date yet to be determined)
Intervarsity's Toah Nipi Christian Retreat Center in Rindge, NH is the location for this extraordinary event. Come and take part in this gathering as we address the question; What is God saying to the home fellowship pastors, and why is it time to enable them to build a network and encourage itinerant activities throughout this network?
The setting for this retreat is a wilderness setting with a pond, miles of hiking trails, and plenty of area to find quiet and solitude to practice the presence of God, either alone or perhaps with a spouse.There are rooms available for this overnight retreat on a pre-registration basis, provided without cost through the generosity of Gregg Hodgson, Director of Toah Nipi, who's only request is that we pay for meals ($20/ea) and take a love offering instead of the normal $50 overnight fee. WOW!
We will gather on Sunday afternoon for introductions beginning at 1:00PM as people begin to arrive throughout the afternoon, and break bread together for an evening meal and time of sharing between 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM. Following dinner, we will have a time of quiet gathering campfire-style with acoustic instruments and open discussion, as well as worship and prayer, all mixed in as the Lord leads.
Monday morning is a time of solitude and a time to seek God in all of His creation in this beautiful New England nature setting before gathering to break bread again (breakfast). Following breakfast we will gather for corporate prayer and discussion of any prophetic word that might be shared for everyone's benefit before breaking bread (lunch) one last time. The afternoon will be a time of "raising a joyful noise-style" worship and "free time" to network or enjoy the surroundings again before departing.
Please come, take part, and let us get to know you.
Let us know soon for the planning of food and rooms!
In His love,
David R. Thayer, Director of Ministries
