Many people live with the pressure of working at an outer persona that is seemingly acceptable whilst experiencing a very real sense of emptiness on the inside. Lost in negative patterns of behaviour, just going through the motions of being a Christian, there can be a deep sense of isolation and wondering if there is more.
This creativity course is not simply an opportunity to do crafts and creative activities, instead, God uses the creativity to reach us deep on the inside. It provides an opportunity for connection – real connection with God and others. A kind of connection that happens when God’s Spirit touches our heart and where our mind is not dictating the process.
If you feel an ache in your heart for a deeper connection with God, then this course may be the key to experiencing God’s healing heart in way you never have before.
Registration starts at 4.30pm and the course begins with an evening meal at 6.00pm.
This course ends with lunch on the final day at 1.00pm with departure by 3.00pm.
On arrival you will be welcomed by our reception team! If you are staying overnight, you will be shown to your accommodation, given details about the event such as mealtimes or where the teaching sessions take place. Our team and event hosts will be around if you have any further questions after arriving, and to help you feel at home during your time on the event.
Yes, there will be free time! How much free time you get depends on the length of the event, but there will always be opportunity for you to take a walk in the beautiful grounds, to chat with other guests, or take some time to yourself. For longer events, there will be free days where you can explore the local area, or rest.
This is a totally understandable question! A majority of guests on our events come on their own, and don’t know anyone else, so you won’t be the only one! Occasionally, some of the guests may come together, but it doesn’t take long for people to start chatting over mealtimes or coffee breaks and get to know each other.
If the event you are on offers time for prayer ministry, then you will have the option to have time with our trained ministry team. This in an opportunity for you to share what you would like prayer for. Prayer ministry is always confidential, caring, and considerate. For further information on how we minister see our Best Ministry Practice.
