Clergy Wellness Retreat
Camp Allen - Navasota, TX
May 20-22, 2021
Need a break?  All active clergy and their immediate families (spouses, young kids, old kids, no kids) are warmly invited to this time of refreshment and renewal at Camp Allen, outside Navasota, TX, coming up May 20-22 (beginning with check-in at 2pm, Thursday; and ending with check-out at 11am, Saturday).  Unlike in past years, the only agenda for this retreat will be time away together for rest.  We’ll have lots of family-friendly activities available, so bring your kids and relax in the piney woods of Camp Allen.  

Due to space limitations for COVID (Camp Allen is not Globe Life Field!), we will not be able to accommodate all clergy.  Registration is open now to clergy with children under the age of 18.  Beginning April 23, all active clergy and spouses are welcome to register.  There will be a registration fee of $50 per single clergy or $75 per family.  Even if you previously emailed Cn. Hylden to indicate your interest, please register on the Camp Allen website using the below link.  The deadline to register is May 14.

When you register, the Camp Allen website will ask you to create a password so you can retrieve your reservation information at a later date and will provide a way for you to pay online.
Masking and social-distancing protocols will be observed at Camp Allen to ensure that this time is safe for all.  This gift of self-care and refreshment is in appreciation for your faithful ministry throughout this challenging year.  May you and your family enjoy this time together. 

If you have any questions, please contact Laura Faulkner at  .

Blessings,
Bp. George and EDOD Staff
