"It’s renewal, discipleship, and leadership training in a 'crash course.'
Who wouldn’t want their lay people to take part in this?!"
"I love this laity-driven program where people can learn to be a leader
and live out their Christianity."
"Pastors should encourage their people to attend the retreat to deepen their faith and to get new ideas on how to better serve the congregations of which they are a part."
