Senior lEADERS RETREAT

26-27 JUNE 2025
MILTON HILL HOUSE, OXFORD

Over the last four years we have hosted several retreats for women in senior church leadership. These have been precious times of connecting with other women and meeting with Jesus in a space where we can celebrate the joys, and recognise the challenges, of our roles.

If you are a Senior Church Leader we would love you to join us in 2025. Our desire is to make this 24 hours as worthwhile as possible, knowing the demands of leadership that there are on all of us. There’ll be lots of space for worship and prayer plus input that we hope will strengthen, inspire and equip you in your leadership.

We are hosting the retreat at Milton Hill House, a hotel in Oxfordshire on Thursday 26th- Friday 27th June 2025.

Included in our retreat is;

  • En-suite Accommodation (option for twin or single rooms)

  • Pastries and Coffee on arrival

  • Lunch

  • 3 Course Dinner

  • Full English Breakfast

  • Use of leisure facilities including gym, pool, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi

  • Car parking and free Wifi

  • Milton Hill House is surrounded by 22 acres of parkland which is available for guests to explore

We have seen God work powerfully in the past at our retreat and we are so expectant for what he will do in 2025.

We would love for you to join us,
Amy and Rachel
