The Center for Bold Leadership at Hood Theological Seminary will host its annual Transformation Retreat on Saturday, August 3, 2024, from 9:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. This year’s theme is The Tribe of R.U.T.H.: Navigating the Path of Women of Color in Ministry.
This one-day retreat on Hood’s campus will provide a day of worship, affirmation, empowerment, nurturing, renewal, and joy. We recognize that women of color face unique challenges in their call and need the sista support and Grace that this retreat will provide. Our day will consist of inspirational speakers, special sessions on spiritual discernment, self-care and wellness, finance, sista support, and much laughter etc. The retreat is open to both clergy and lay people in ministry.
Please mark your calendars for Saturday, August 3, 2024, for this powerful day. Tickets are $25.00. Please visit the Center’s website, https://boldlead.org, to order your ticket.
