We are excited for this weekend together! We want to reflect on what forms us and what it means to be formed and standing firm in the Gospel of Jesus. There are many confusing influences and messages in our day. One of our values is that we want to be a Gospel-fluent people - formed by the Gospel. We also want to be filled by the Spirit. We need power, encouragement, healing, and refreshment. In order for us to join Jesus and stand firm in our world, we need the power of the Spirit. A weekend away like this is an excellent time for us to be filled afresh. There will be opportunities to sign-up for prayer appointments and time for us to pray together.

Why Come?
Because the CityLights Retreat is a big deal! Amidst our hurried lives, rarely do we get unhurried, extended, intentional time together. Time to play, pray, receive, rest, enjoy, unite, encourage - to be family, to be with Christ - together. This is a time worth investing in and open to our whole church community. This year's schedule is utilizing the Monday stat to create more flexible space for resting and playing.
Who will be speaking/ teaching this year?
We are blessed to have Chris Synasael join as our guest speaker this year. Chris is a church planter, Founder of West Village Church and Soma Area Leader. We will also have prayer ministry guests, Ken and Reena D'sa, Elders and Missional Community leaders at West Village Church
