Note: Registration is now full for the two-night/three-day PCC Pastors Retreat 2026, November 2-4.
What – Annual PCC Pastor Retreats have been held the first Monday in November since 2022. They are organized primarily by The Renewal Fellowship, with inspiration and primary financial support from Vaughan Community Church. All ministers and pastors in PCC congregations or aligned ministries and expressions are welcome. Content and worship is firmly rooted in reformed Christian orthodoxy.
This year’s theme – “The hope within you”, based on 1 Peter 3:15 – As followers of Christ and as pastoral leaders we are invited to celebrate the hope that is ours in Christ – a hope that is intimately ours and also mysteriously ours. In our time together, we will consider the nature of our Christian hope and also explore what it means for us to nurture this hope. Our cultural moment is one in which it is easy to lose hope, and one in which many experience life precisely as hopelessness. As we face this challenge we will remember our hope and claim our hope and be encouraged to live in hope, through the One who is our hope.”
Speaker – Rev. Dr. Roland DeVries, principal of Presbyterian College in Montreal.
Schedule and Program – The retreat kicks off at noon Monday Nov. 2 with lunch, and ends with lunch on Wednesday, Nov. 4. Each day will include worship, presentations from our speaker, small group discussions and generous opportunities for quiet time. Two spiritual directors will be present for one-on-one sessions, if desired.
Location – Queen of Apostles Renewal Centre.
