What you can expect at REFRESH
The Invitation
The schedule begins with a custom made invitation that has been carefully designed by our Refresh team.
Arrival
When you arrive at 9:30am, the Refresh event begins. You are greeted at the check-in table. There you will check-in, receive a name tag, and begin to enjoy the delicious coffee, goodies, and decor that has been especially designed for you!
From the Heart
From the Heart is a time when you have an opportunity to share with the group. This time of sharing blessings, experiences, and expressing needs speaks to all hearts. It brings unity to the group and brings personal insight for ministry and daily living. This time also gives you a voice in a group who understands what you do in ministry and also brings encouragement to all!
Special Message
A special message is prepared for each Refresh. Tools for ministry, personal growth, and feeding the soul are what the message brings. A dose of encouragement is always included to minister to hearts in a practical and meaningful way.
Greeting and Worship
After you have enjoyed delicious coffee and goodies, get settled and comfortable for the experience of a time of worship and scripture. This special time reaches your soul with the peace, comfort, and joy that only God can give.
Brunch/Lunch
There is just something about eating delicious food together! The menu at Refresh has been prepared just for you. As you sit at a table with members of your team and other children's pastors, the blessing of relationships is cultivated over food, glorious food!
Fellowship
The fellowship of being together is a part of the entire Refresh event!
Parting Gift
Lastly, you will receive a special parting gift. The Refresh team sends you home with this gift in hopes that you feel encouraged, equipped to continue ministry, and fulfilled by engaging in fellowship with other children's pastors and leaders.
