We need to confirm the number of rooms by September 8. \nFriday\, September 29 is earmarked as a retreat day for Ordered Ministers. \nSaturday\, September 30 is set aside as a Co-Learning Day for Ordered Ministers\, DLMs and LLWL. \nFinally\, October 1 is a Retreat Day for DLMs and LLWLs. \nThis retreat is taking place at Manoir D’Youville located on l’île Bernard in Châteauguay\, Québec. \nI have often heard ministers and lay persons involved in ministry of all sorts speak of feelings of isolation and of the wish for more connections with colleagues and others who share a similar call to ministry. This retreat is an opportunity to break this isolation and create new bonds with others who provide leadership to those who follow Christ. \nAnd so\, I invite you to join us in prayer\, learning\, and fellowship\, and register now before the deadline passes. \n\nFor more information\, contact \nDan Hayward:dhayward@united-church.ca \nDavid-Roger Gagnon:drgagnon@united-church.ca \n  \n\n \n \n \n \n \n Post-retreat evaluation survey URL:https://nakonhakaucc.ca/event/retreat-for-all-who-minister/ LOCATION:Manoir d’Youville\, 498\, boul. d'Youville\, Châteauguay\, QC\, Canada CATEGORIES:Ministry personnel,Retreat ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://nakonhakaucc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/2023-MinistryRetreat-banner.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Rev.
