The theme of this year’s retreat is to “unclutter and
focus your heart.” To help us do that, we are
providing several opportunities for some extended
personal time with God. We will also have access to
a selection of books and articles to borrow for
reading during the weekend to aid in this reflective
time and in planning how to continue to “unclutter
and focus.” Some of KBC’s pastors and other
leaders will also be available to meet with us
personally for spiritual guidance and advice. |
