Collective Renewal Resource

This is a place of joy and wonder.
An hours drive from my childhood home.
A lifetime of learning what makes me come alive.
If it wasn’t the mountains or the waves,
It was the dinner and the music in the living room.
If it wasn’t the cool fall breeze as we cruised on the water, it was the warmth of wisdom from my aunt; a pillar of strength and stability.

This is an image of God’s grace before I ever understood it.

Where or with whom is your place to experience grace?

Since Hurricane Helene swept through Western NC, we've been connected with more than 40 pastors that have been on the frontlines—helping their communities recover, offering hope, and holding it all together. But here’s the thing: they need time to breathe, heal, and renew, too.

As we begin the new year, we’re launching a special effort to support these clergy heroes. Your end-of-year gift will make it possible to:

🎨 Provide play therapy activities to help heal trauma for their families.
🤝 Foster peer support groups where they can connect and recharge.
📚 Offer customized resources tailored to their unique challenges.

By giving today, you’re directly helping pastors who’ve carried so much for so long. Every dollar helps to assure them they’re not alone and that they’re equipped to keep showing up with strength and compassion.

🙏 And if you can’t give, contact us to see how you can play a part in offering support and encouragement in the weeks ahead.

Ministry leaders, like the shepherds, are called to watch, wait, and proclaim. 🌟

📖 "The Word became flesh and dwelt among us..." (John 1:14)

Tonight, as we proclaim the arrival of Emmanuel—God with us—remember that He is with YOU, too.
