We're having a silent retreat in Ontario for our ANiC clergy. We hope to provide time for you to be in a quiet place, listen to Jesus in his Word, and experience rest for your soul.
In Matthew 11: 28, Jesus says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
If you are clergy please join us for this important time of quiet and rest.
