SUMMARY:Bishop’s Retreat
DESCRIPTION:This event has been POSTPONED. Check back for new dates and registration information. \nReflection\, Rest\, and Renewal: A time away along streams of living water \nUpper Susquehanna Synod 2020 Bishop’s Retreat \nMay 6-8\, 2020 \nCamp Hebron (www.camphebron.org) 957 Camp Hebron Road\, Halifax PA 17032 \nRegister Now With credit card  OR  Pay by check (payable to Upper Susquehanna Synod). \nThe Bishop’s Retreat for 2020 will be held May 6-8 at Camp Hebron in Halifax\, PA. Nestled along the Appalachian Trail just north of Harrisburg\, they have 340 acres of wooded sanctuary. Camp Hebron is only 8 miles northeast from the bridge at Duncannon and just a few miles from the junction of Routes 147 and 225 south of Halifax. \nWe will stay in the Sylvan View all-in-one retreat center\, which features 35 comfortable motel-style rooms accommodating up to 4 people each. There is a private bath in each room and linens are provided. The camp has hiking and walking trails for various abilities. Other possibilities include walking the Prayer Labyrinth\, a full-size gymnasium\, bike riding\, and sitting by a campfire. \nOur Retreat begins on May 6 at 9:30am and concludes at 11:30am on May 8. The agenda includes worship\, prayer\, group discussions\, conversation with the bishop\, and plenty of time for personal and group reflection and recreation. You will have opportunities for spiritual direction and massage at an additional cost. \nThis year we will be joined by colleagues from Lower Susquehanna and Allegheny Synods. \nJn 7:37b “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me\, and let the one who believes in me drink.  As the scripture has said\, ‘Out of the believer’s heart shall flow rivers of living water.’” \nHow do you make space for creativity and imagination?   Are there practices that you can experience that will allow you to make space for inspiration and writing?  Are there ways to dialogue with a scripture text that will open you to the movement of the Spirit to spark your own creativity in inviting others to hear the word of God’s promises in Christ along with you.  We want to invite you to a time away for reflection\, rest\, and renewal that will have a two-track approach to opportunities for experiencing creative\, reflective writing and poetry and concrete dialogues with texts for deepening approaches to preaching and teaching. \nWe are pleased to welcome Rev. Kevin Shock from the Allegheny Synod to facilitate the track on dialogues with the text.  Kevin is one of the contributors to the Sundays and Seasons and has a passion for thinking deeply about scripture texts.  Barb Debski and Rev. Robert Doll will facilitate the creative writing track as ones who have a love for poetry and the spiritual practice of writing. \nCost for registration by April 15\, is $310 single; $200 double; $70 commuter. \nOnline registration is now open! \nTo pay by credit card use this link: https://tithe.ly/event-registration/#/1170589 \nTo pay by check (to Upper Susquehanna Synod) use this link: https://tithe.ly/event-registration/#/1170642. \nClick here for a schedule \n \n
