RenovaréAlumni Retreat
To Get Away and Be Together
Vision for Retreat
The idea for an Institute Alumni Retreat began in 2014. This idea was
born out of a desire for meaningful community and an unwillingness to let the
Renovaré community end after the Institute. While it has taken some time with
many twists, turns, and cliff-falls, we are here – a community. What we will become
is up to us.
Unlike a conference or an information-driven retreat experience, this time
together arises out of a passion to be with God and with one another in meaningful
community. Space is deliberately carved out for time alone with God and
meaningful experiential time together through spiritual practices, small group
interaction and lots of laughter.
We want to make the Alumni Institute Reunion about the Alumni, for this
is our community. We have remarkable, gifted people among us and we would like to
give those who desire an opportunity to use their gifts during our time together.
Here are some ways that you could participate in leading or serving during the
retreat, we’d love to hear from you.
• Spiritual Directors
• Prayer leaders
• Communion leaders
• Spiritual Exercise leaders
Nathan, Director of Community
Life at Renovaré, will share what
