Come and spend a weekend taking some time out with God.
Dearest All,
Hopefully by now a pack of stuff for all of those of you who led this year should have landed on your doorstep thanking you for giving your all to Ripon this year! Thank you too to the significant help from others who donated and prayed for us: we appreciated it more than you probably realise.
Great news to cheer up your week: the Ripon Retreat Sign up is now live!
Woo hoo!
And the first 40 places are a bargain at just £60... get in there quick!
Ripon is a lot more than just giving some teenagers a great holiday, it's also about the community, the friends we make and the sense of journeying together.
So, for the fourth year, we'll be gathering together in the stunning Erasmus Centre for lots of time to relax, walk in stunning countryside (or even, discussion is suggesting, a trip over to the beach...), worship and get some top notch teaching alongside great food and great company.
This is open to everyone who has ever led at Ripon or is connected to someone from Ripon as long as they are over 18. It's the ideal place for those who for whatever reason can no-longer commit to leading at Ripon in the summer to keep connected to those old and new.
So although we can't promise not to get excited by Ripon 2019 (!!), it is in no way a planning session, but about filling ourselves and catching up with each other.
Moreover, what a better way to banish the post Christmas blues, and help us to refocus as spring approaches?!
The first 40 places will be at the price of £60.
After that, we may be able to squeeze more into the main house, but it will be an additional £50 (this is also an option for those of you who are working, as you do get a room to yourself ;-) ).
Spread out the cost?
If you want to, you can pay a little each month:
£20 deposit in October,
£10 in Nov, Dec, Jan and Feb
just send us an email when you sign up.
Travelling by train?
Pop down the 1st December into your diary - it's the day when the cheap tickets are opened up.... ;-)
