Soul Care Retreats for Pastors and Ministry Leaders
Within your ministry, you must meet the needs of your community not just as a spiritual leader, but as an advisor, mentor, educator, administrator, fundraiser, and so much more.
With the weight of expectations, the constant pull of responsibility, and the desire to serve, it’s no wonder you’ve started to feel isolated and exhausted. You might even be questioning your calling in life.
You’re so busy helping others that you forget to take care of yourself.
Common Soul Care Retreat Outcomes
Renewing Your Soul To Reinvigorate Your Mission
The health of your ministry and mission is tied to the well-being of your soul. As a pastor or ministry leader, you face high expectations from your congregation and community. The constant pressure to exemplify moral and ethical behavior 24/7 can be overwhelming — leading to fear of judgment or failure.
As the shepherd of your congregation, it can be isolating even though you’re surrounded by people.
Soul Care Is More Than Self-Care
Soul Care is a reconnection with yourself, finding peace within the chaos, and replenishing the deep wells of your spirit and connection with God. It’s a connection with other people like you, in similar roles seeing how they navigate similar situations and finding connectedness with other pastors, ministers, and spiritual leaders.
By nurturing your spiritual and emotional health, you’ll be better equipped to serve others with greater impact and authenticity — without feeling overwhelmed and burnt out.
A Time For Reflection, Prayer, And Meditation With God
Whether you’re looking for 1-on-1 support, or as a group with the leaders in your ministry, our restorative soul care retreats are here to help. Take a respite from the heavy demands of ministry life — a place where you can unplug, decompress, and open your heart to God.
We provide a safe space for you to explore your emotions, doubts, and struggles without judgment or pressure. You can freely express yourself without fear of being misunderstood or criticized. You’re not alone in this journey.

What to Expect at a Soul Care Retreat
During each Soul Care retreat, participants are guided through practices and engagement exercises designed around spiritual rejuvenation and connecting at a deeper level with Christ. We do not simply instruct on soul care practices, but we invite those gathered to engage in the experiences.
You’ll reflect on what you have learned, seen, or experienced in your life during the exercises and how God has been at work in and through your life.
Each soul care exercise within the retreat is carefully curated for you and aimed to engage your mind, body, and spirit in restoration. Our past participants have come away with a deeper connection to God, reigniting their passion for ministry and a reaffirmation of their calling in life.
