DESCRIPTION:The annual Bishop's silent retreat for clergy will be led by He
 ather Ruce this year. It will take place\, as usual\, at Loon Lake Lodge 
 and Retreat Centre. \n\n"Rest is a chance to gaze on God\, to readjust ou
 r minds\, realign our hearts\, reset our priorities\, clarify our commitme
 nts\, and enlarge our perspectives." ~ Marjorie J. Thompson\n\nClergy of
 fer themselves to others in service to God\, yet often lack the space to t
 end to their own souls. The needs of a congregation are endless and it can
  be hard to know when\, or how\, to put that down. This retreat allows cle
 rgy to step into an unhurried space\, set apart from the demands of minist
 ry\, and simply care for their own souls. Through prayer\, silence\, teach
 ing\, reflection\, sharing\, and unstructured time\, this gathering offers
  clergy explicit permission to rest\, to be tended to rather than tending\
 , and to be nourished.\nAccomodation at Loon Lake\nRooms will be assigned 
 on a first-come\, first-served basis this year with one flat rate for all 
 participants. The Diocese will continue to subsidize one of the two nights
  and all program costs. \nRegistration\nPlease register HERE by October 1
 8. \nA detailed schedule will be sent out to all who register.
