All Lake North District Pastors and members of their Church Staff are invited and encouraged to come together for a Pastors & Staff Retreat on Wednesday, Nov. 30 from 9 am to 3 pm. Pastors & Staff will meet together in the morning through lunch, and Pastors will continue after lunch until 3 pm.

The day is designed to be a time for shared rest & renewal and for processing the personal grief and trauma of the past 2 ½ years of pandemic. Participants will also become equipped with tools for becoming a healing agent for their communities that have also known grief and trauma.

Rev. Dr. Bob Campbell will be our facilitator for the day. Dr. Campbell is a NIC Elder, licensed clinical psychologist, and recent Co-Director of Willow Wellness Center with special interests in relationship therapy, trauma, and serious illnesses. 

Pastors and Church Staff are strongly encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity.
