“What a treasure trove for churches and leaders who want to ‘get away from it all’ but feel held back by busy schedules or uncertainty as to where to begin. Foster’s wonderful book is not only soulful and creative but well-organized—a useful, adaptable, inspiring resource for retreat groups of all sizes and personalities. These retreats will invite groups to delve into Scripture deeply, consider life’s questions and challenges carefully, grow friendships prayerfully, and have fun joyfully!”
“Retreats to Go is a much-needed resource for pastors and church leaders looking to provide opportunities for adults and older teens to dive deeper into the Spirit. From scripturally informed themes, to practical suggestions for leaders, to ideas for activities and devotions, to the nuts and bolts of setting up a room, Susan Foster has thought of everything and made it accessible, clear, and engaging. What a gift!”
“As a former pastor, Christian educator, and youth minister I highly recommend this book. Based on her years of experience leading retreats, it has everything you need to plan, publicize, and conduct a successful retreat. The steps are easy to follow and easily adaptable for your particular situation. By the time you finish this book, you’ll be designing your own retreats with ease.”
