Water from the Well Caring for ourselves, while caring for others. This is a major challenge for anyone in ministry.

This overnight retreat will offer such an opportunity in the peaceful environment of Dromantine, where the pace will be slow and deeply restful. Sharon will help us to drink deeply from the living water, Jesus himself, offering ways to press the reset button and grow in intimacy and joy in God.
