 is an invitation to rest and be recreated before Lent begins
 .  Join your friends as we sit at the feet of three wise spi
 ritual leaders and listen for God’s Word:    Shane Claiborne
  is a nationally-known leader in the new monastic movement w
 ithin evangelicalism.  A dynamic speaker, Shane’s perspectiv
 e incorporates the best of the prophetic tradition, progress
 ivism of today’s youth, and evangelical commitment to holine
 ss and commitment to Christ.    Karen Greenwaldt is in her 1
 0th year as General Secretary of the General Board of Discip
 leship.  An ordained elder, Karen is a member of the Central
  Texas Conference.  She has served the GBOD for 30 years and

  to Russ Harris, a full-time studio potter.  Prior to shifti
 ng all his vocational energy to art, Russ served as pastor o
 f churches in Ohio and Tennessee.  Russ will create pottery 
 live during our retreat.  REGISTER HERE  **The retreat cost,
  with no increase, remains at $60 for two days and two lunch
 es. (Dinner on Thursday will be on your own) Our Life Togeth
 er is scheduled for Thursday and Friday this year to avoid c
 onflicting with Valentine's Day**  Click here to view the sc
 hedule. Together, Karen and Russ will work with Shane to bri
 ng to life Isaiah’s image of the people of God as the work o
 f God the Potter’s hand.  Expect to be both challenged and e
 mbraced, called forward and offered grace.
