For anyone exploring a call to ministry in The United Church of Canada

Is something stirring in you… a nudge to explore your leadership role in the church?
Is there a spark of curiosity about ministry—small, steady, or maybe a little surprising?
An Invitation to Wonder is a weekend retreat designed to help you explore the possibility of a call to ministry in a gentle, open-hearted way. We’ll wonder together, listen together, and create room for Spirit, curiosity and conversation.
We’re still finalizing details, but we want to ensure you can mark your calendars now.
Date: February 20-22, 2026, offered online in segments
Registration is now open!
If you’re curious, this weekend is for you.
