The Centre for Spiritual Formation exists to cultivate within the lives of participants a deeper, more intimate relationship with Christ.  We provide a variety of learning experiences that involve participants in topical discussions, reflective practices, spiritual guidance, spiritual disciplines and community engagement.  Christian spirituality is expressed and nurtured in personal and corporate contexts formed and shaped by a melding of solitude and community.

Each year a variety of retreats and seminars are offered, in several locations (check our website for more current information).  In addition, churches may contact us to design a retreat for a specific group (e.g. a group of elders, a Ministry Team, and so on) or for a specific need (e.g. learning to listen to God,  incorporating the visual world into prayer, and so on).  Finally, a 2-year graduate-level program is offered — to read more about the graduate-level program click HERE.
