Join us for EQUIP 2026: “Rooted in Faith – Growing Deeper, Reaching Wider” on Saturday, September 26, at Columbia First Church of the Nazarene for a day of practical training, inspiring workshops, and spiritual encouragement. Come be equipped alongside pastors, leaders, teachers, and ministry teams—and leave with fresh, God-given ideas to strengthen your church and reach your community!

Join us for a focused time of worship, prayer, and practical training designed to strengthen your leadership and clarify the future of your ministry. This retreat will be led by Jarrod Spalding, Founder and Lead Navigator for Vision Partners, and is crafted specifically for pastors and ministry leaders navigating the challenges and opportunities of today’s church.

October 16-17, 2026

Throughout our time together, we will worship, be encouraged through God’s Word, enjoy meaningful fellowship and shared meals, and leave space for unhurried rest and recreation. Whether that means long walks along the beach, games around the table, or just spending time in your room, this retreat creates space for renewal.

We are excited to welcome Brad and Kari Taylor as our special guest speakers for our retreat. This is more than a getaway—it’s a chance to reset after the busyness of the holidays, reconnect with your calling and with one another, and begin the year with clarity, encouragement, and hope. We would love for you to join us as we start 2027 together in a place of peace, prayer, and renewal.
