Our days are filled with a thousand habit patterns, forming us into anxious and weary people. The freedom of the gospel feels beyond the reach of the daily grind of today. But what can we do about it?

During this one-day retreat we will explore the good (and the bad) habits that make up the daily fabric of our lives and look for the life-giving habits of gospel living.

So, let’s take a minute to learn, to laugh, to change what can be changed … as we seek God together.
