Renewal Retreats
Join us on the Wilmore Kentucky campus for a Renewal Retreat!
Renewal Retreats are individual, personalized retreats tailored around your chosen intention (needs and longings) for getting away. For each retreat we thoughtfully draw from the formation-rich environment of the Asbury Seminary community and craft personalized days to move you slowly through formative experiences aimed toward your intention for the retreat. Most retreats begin with a professional massage as well as a conversation with a personal trainer to discuss health and choose a gentle way to engage the body during the retreat. The other elements of your retreat are chosen to fit your request. These might include: conversation with faculty around scripture, discerning prayer times, thoughtful leadership advice, sharing in the Eucharist and participating in chapel, fasting in solitude, or delving into study.
The cost of renewal retreats varies depending on length of stay and activity participation.
If you are interested in participating in this form of retreat, feel free to contact:
Peg Hutchins, the Director of Community Formation, at (859) 858-2242 or Tammy Cessna, the Director of Alumni and Church Relations, at (859) 858-2306
