Today, a group of us are headed out to the retreat center to get things set up. The rest of the women, from eight states and over twenty congregations will arrive tonight and tomorrow! We are ready to rest, renew, and refresh: Called to Listen.
Thank you for your prayers for all that God has done and will do through this weekend. I know there are many of you who wish you could be with us. The good news is that the classes will be recorded, the booklets will be made available, and you can join us in the forty days of listening, starting on Monday through Called to Listen: Forty Days of Devotion.
As you join us in prayer for the Destination Retreat, may we also keep the victims of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, the victims of the earthquake in Mexico, those affected by the wildfires in California, Oregon, and Montana, as well as others we each know who are hurting through their own personal tragedies.
God is listening.
Thank you for listening.

It is easy to find some guidance tables that doctors and other professionals make available to parents and educators that show how many hours of sleep a day are needed for an average child, according to his or her age. Professionals know and insist on the importance of rest for people, especially for children. It is a key piece in their development. It makes them grow healthy and develop properly.
We, as Christians, are also in constant growth and development (Phil. 1: 6). Rest for our spirit is also fundamental for us, just as physical rest is for children.
