In April, Calumet will be gathering folks from all over for a Sunday-Tuesday retreat that will engage participants in some valuable programming related to God's people who experience GRIEF ... providing space for WONDER as a way of processing ... and reminding ourselves that God's people are wired to look for HOPE -- even when we're in the pit.
There are lots of people for whom a major life event has been jarring, trauma-inducing, shocking, or just incredibly difficult. For some, it's a brand new thing and for others it's a life circumstance that came into being some years ago.
Examples of what might be at the root of grief: Death ... Family Crisis ... Health Condition ... A Congregation's Closure ... A loved one's addiction ...
Retreat participants will be together to share, to wonder, to discern, to explore what God might be up to, and to experience some resources and tools that have been a major help to lots of others.
This retreat will be a very good fit for anyone who is looking for a safe place, a safe community, and safe leaders who want to provide help and share time in the journey. Take a look at the schedule we used for our awesome event in April of 2024. For future events, we'll adjust and plan based on how the Spirit moves.
