The Small Church Pastor’s Retreat is an annual collaborative effort between Mo-Ranch, Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary and the Synod of the Sun. The retreat is designed for pastors seeking time to study, reflect and recreate through fellowship and workshops.
This is an opportunity for pastors to experience renewal in their ministry with their peers and the Lord.
