The program of Shepherds’ Haven of Rest provides spiritual retreats for pastors, staff members, and their wives. The retreats run approximately 5 days and nights. The focus is on rest and relaxation, solitude with God, group interaction, and Biblical guidance. The retreats are informal in nature. Our goal is a relaxing atmosphere conducive to physical rest, spiritual reflection, and quality time for husbands and wives. Biblical guidance with retreat leaders is an option. Time for Bible study, worship, and sharing is also available.
Private accommodations for each couple and all meals are furnished without cost. These retreats are located around the United States to provide easy access for ministry couples.
We believe in God-called ministry. We believe that the vast majority of those who respond to God’s calling do so with a depth of commitment. They enter the ministry with vision, excitement, and expectation of serving the Lord and making a difference in the lives of people. However, these are difficult and demanding days for those who serve in the local church. The normal load of ministry is time intensive and taxing in itself. Physical, emotional, and spiritual demands often override all normalcy of daily living and effectiveness in ministry. Thus, the need for retreat and renewal.
