Partner with Shepherds' Shoot
Shepherds’ Shoot Ministries understands the importance of supporting senior clergy members and their spouses in their roles as spiritual leaders. That’s why we partner with churches to provide an easy and seamless way for pastors and their families to access our retreats. By partnering with us, churches can offer their senior clergy members a unique and restorative experience.
By partnering with Shepherds’ Shoot, you’re providing pastors and their wives with an opportunity to rest and reset while investing in their spiritual well-being. Pastors face immense pressure as they fulfill their responsibilities to the church, and often, their own needs are neglected in the process. By sponsoring a retreat, the church demonstrates its commitment to supporting their pastors’ physical, emotional, and spiritual health, allowing them to return refreshed and recharged. Additionally, attending a retreat with other pastors and their spouses can create a sense of community, providing a supportive network for years to come.
