Church Retreat

Covenant Church Retreat
— A Time to Slow Down and Grow Together
What might happen if we slowed down long enough to remember who we are?
On May 8–9, Covenant Church will gather at Agape’ Wilderness Retreat Center for a special time designed to help us reconnect—with God, with one another, and with the heart of our calling as a church.
This retreat will be led not by pastors, but by people from Covenant—ordinary men and women who are seeking to follow Jesus faithfully in everyday life. That’s part of what makes this experience unique. We’ll be learning from one another, encouraging one another, and growing together.
Throughout the retreat, we will explore the core commitments that shape our life together with:
These are not just ideas—they are the foundation of who we are becoming.
The retreat will include worship, teaching, small group conversations, and time to simply be together. It will also include space to slow down, reflect, and listen.
We’ve made a couple of important adjustments to make this more accessible:
This is an opportunity to step out of the noise of everyday life and invest in your spiritual growth and relationships within the church.
The retreat will take place at Agape Wilderness Retreat Center, just 12 miles from Covenant Church in Bedford, Kentucky.
Lodge Accommodation and Meals: $85.50
Cabin Accommodation and Meals: $75.40
Stay overnight at Home and Meals at the Retreat Center: $40.00
Scholarships are available.
We hope you’ll prayerfully consider joining us. The deadline to sign up is Monday, May 4.
