This year’s theme is “Agents of Change: Christ’s Heart in Action Nurturing Global Effect”.
Did you know that God has called you to be an agent of change in the world? This call is found in scripture and reflected in our baptismal vows as Anglicans, but can sometimes feel overwhelming or too daunting a task as individuals. At this year's Recharge Retreat, we want to focus on the fact that God has put us in a community, the church, and working together in the power of the Holy Spirit we can challenge injustice and bring change to the world we are all part of. We also want to hear from you about the issues that you care about and talk together about practical ways you can make a difference.
