Pastoral Posture // An annual retreat for those struggling in the mess of ministry life

Ministry has a way of exposing our fragility. The sense of falling short, the limp we carry from wounds along the way, the feeling of being far from the table — these are experiences many in ministry know but rarely name. This retreat invites us to sit with one of Scripture’s most quietly profound stories: Mephibosheth, brought from obscurity and brokenness to eat at the king’s table, not because of anything he had done, but because of a covenant kept.
