East Focus Retreat Concludes

Posted by Liz Cutler Gates on October 29, 2009

The Focus Retreat for Grace Brethren pastors in the eastern region of the U.S. concluded yesterday (October 28) at Ocean City, Md. The morning began with breakfast, then Tom Hocking, moderator of the Fellowship of Grace Brethren Churches for 2009-2011, taught on Loving Christ’s Body. (Tom is also pastor of Bellflower Brethren Church in California.)

The morning concluded as the men spent time in listening and reflecting, dividing into twos to celebrate the spiritual discipline of foot washing. Some chose to walk the beach, as the two pastors below did, while others found other locations around the Holiday Inn, where the retreat was held, to wash one another’s feet. As they returned to the meeting area, they spent time in prayer and commissioning, before returning to their respective ministries.
