A Retreat for Pastors
January 21-23, 2024
St. Francis Springs Prayer Center, Stoneville

 

“Our deepest calling is to grow into our own authentic self-hood, whether or not it conforms to some image of who we ought to be. As we do so, we will not only find the joy that every human being seeks–we will also find our path of authentic service in the world.”
―Parker J. Palmer

Helping Pastors Thrive, a ministry of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of North Carolina, invites ministers to gather for a time of spiritual discovery on January 21-23, 2024 at St. Francis Springs Prayer Center in Stoneville, NC.

Tending to souls is at the center of ministry. Yet, in recent years, the challenges faced by pastors in caring for and nurturing the spiritual lives of others has been overwhelmingly difficult and challenging. Many ministers find themselves spiritually depleted and exhausted, wondering about their ability to live into their vocation in such turbulent times.

Join other ministers in a time of sharing and rediscovering spiritual voices essential to ministers as followers of Jesus.

Additional information on schedule, direction to St. Francis Springs, and opportunities during the retreat will be sent following registration.

Friday, January 26 – Saturday, January 27, 2024
Camp Dogwood on Lake Norman

CBFNC is launching a new pilot program: The Church Sustainability Initiative. This initiative focuses on working alongside congregations to discern their next most faithful step, exploring new pathways for churches by examining their sustainability and vitality.

After listening to churches across the state, we have honed in on seven compelling stories of congregations that serve as models for potential pathways forward. These pathways include resetting ministry, ending well and becoming a legacy church, developing revenue-based space partnerships, selling church facilities and restarting with a new approach, sharing space with other congregations, and more.

The Church Sustainability Initiative will launch in 2024 with a summit for churches, with 3-4 representatives (pastor/interim, deacon, finance member, and one other leader) on January 26-27 at Camp Dogwood on Lake Norman. Cost is $110 for a single occupancy room and $60 for double occupancy room; includes all meals.
