SUMMARY:Wellspring of Well-Being: Tapping into Our Creative Power to Reclaim Wholeness 
DESCRIPTION:Nationally touring artist\, author\, and activator of joy Joe Davis will guide pastoral leaders through his signature method of communal practices that integrate journaling\, mindful movement\, and creativity. Joe’s work is rooted in the belief that joy is not merely an emotion but a spiritual practice—one that sustains us in challenging seasons and reconnects us to the sacredness of our own stories. \nFor many pastors\, the ongoing demands of ministry leave little room to tend your inner life. This retreat offers space to exhale\, reconnect with your body and spirit\, and rediscover the playful\, restorative dimensions of creativity. Through reflective writing\, embodied exercises\, and shared moments of imaginative expression\, participants will explore how joy and meaning emerge when we engage more deeply with ourselves and one another. \nWhile the retreat centers your personal well-being\, these practices may also spark ideas for nurturing belonging\, connection\, and resilience within the congregations you serve. By immersing yourself in these rhythms\, you may find renewed pathways for cultivating environments where authenticity and joy can flourish. \nYou will leave with a personalized wellness calendar\, an accountability system to sustain your growth\, and a renewed sense of wholeness and inner liberation. \n\n\nView key details below and click here for a flyer with details. Register here. \nWhen? Sunday – Wednesday\, April 26-29\, 2026 \nWhere?
