We would love to have you at The Neighborhood Church Spring Retreat 2025! Our theme is The Heart of the Shepherd for Us & For The World. Our theme passage is Luke 15:1-7 which is the story of how a shepherd leaves 99 sheep in the fold to seek a lost sheep. We will first focus on how much God loves us, even when we were lost, and then on how much God loves those who are still lost, then we focus on our call to be witnesses and equipping to share the Good News with others.

We will be spending time in prayer, worship, and processing in small groups. This will be a great opportunity for us grow in relationship with God and each other. We will also have a decent amount free time with optional games/activities so we hope our time will be both deep and fun!

We will be at The Erdman Center in the beautiful down of Princeton, New Jersey. This is accessible by a NJ transit train and a short walk.

Early Bird Cost: $210 (by 3/16)
Regular Cost: $240
$50 Minimum Deposit
Transportation is additional cost.
