It’s retreat season and you can guarantee that people in your ministry group will be excited! Event planners are thrilled to see their retreats come to fruition while guests are eager for a weekend or week filled with activities and worship. However, those who have never experienced a retreat may not share that enthusiasm and will often come up with every excuse to avoid going. That’s where you can step in and encourage them to give it a chance!
