Sabbath Retreat at WellSpring Sanctuary

Wellspring Sanctuary Sabbath Retreat

Step away from the demands of ministry and into a day of rest, reflection, and renewal. Wellspring Sanctuary offers clergy a sacred space to exhale, reconnect with God, and replenish their spirits. This thoughtfully designed day retreat invites pastors and ministry leaders to set aside responsibilities for a few hours and simply receive.

Throughout the day, participants will experience guided moments of stillness, contemplative practices, gentle movement, time in nature, and opportunities for meaningful connection with fellow clergy. The rhythm of the retreat is intentionally unhurried, creating space to listen for God's presence, notice the gifts of the present moment, and restore mind, body, and soul.

One of the unique features of Wellspring Sanctuary is time spent around the pool. Comfortable loungers, shaded gathering spaces, and the calming presence of water create a resort-like atmosphere that encourages deep relaxation. Whether floating quietly beneath the sky, dipping your feet in the water with a journal in hand, sharing meaningful conversation with colleagues, or simply resting in silence, the poolside experience offers a gentle reminder that rest is not a luxury—it is a sacred practice.

Whether you arrive weary, discerning a new season of ministry, or simply longing for a quiet place to rest, Wellspring Sanctuary welcomes you. Here, productivity gives way to presence, and the invitation is simple: come as you are.

  • Guided meditation and contemplative prayer
