Small Church Pastor’s Retreat
October 20-24, 2025
This year, Couples in Ministry, Small Church Pastor’s Retreat and the Art of Transitional Ministry will be offered all in the same weekend, known as Bread for the Journey.
“We love the hospitality and peaceful beauty of Mo-Ranch.”
A retreat for pastors of small churches. Come out to Mo and build connections while doing fun recreational activities and worship!
The Small Church Pastor’s Retreat at Mo-Ranch provides clergy who shepherd small flocks with opportunities for study, reflection and recreation. This retreat allows pastors to step away from the myriad demands upon them and experience renewal in their ministry.
Anyone who is a pastor of a small church – teaching elders, commissioned ruling elders, stated supply pastors, even student pastors – this retreat is for you!
