PASTOR & SPOUSE RETREAT 2027
Kick off the new year at the beach on hilton head island!
EVENT INFORMATION
January 7-10, 2027
Beach House
Hilton Head Island
1 south forest beach Drive
Hilton Head, SC 29928
We invite our retired and lead pastors, pastoral staff members, chaplains, evangelists, their spouses, and widowed spouses of ministers to join us for our 2027 Pastor & Spouse Retreat on beautiful Hilton Head Island. Set against the calm of the South Carolina coast in January, this retreat is intentionally designed to help you slow down, breathe deeply, and step into the new year grounded in God’s presence.
Throughout our time together, we will worship, be encouraged through God’s Word, enjoy meaningful fellowship and shared meals, and leave space for unhurried rest and recreation. Whether that means long walks along the beach, games around the table, or just spending time in your room, this retreat creates space for renewal.
We are excited to welcome Brad and Kari Taylor as our special guest speakers for our retreat. This is more than a getaway—it’s a chance to reset after the busyness of the holidays, reconnect with your calling and with one another, and begin the year with clarity, encouragement, and hope. We would love for you to join us as we start 2027 together in a place of peace, prayer, and renewal.
Register today and give yourself the gift of a strong start to the new year in 2027!
