Come ready to be nourished by God’s Word and supported by the presence of a praying community.

Desert Surrender
2026-03-04 10:30 - 11:30 | Sophia Spirituality Center, 751 S. 8th Street, Atchison, KS, 66002
Zoom

Register

This prayer experience is rooted in the forty days and nights Jesus spent in the desert, fasting, praying, and surrendering to the will of the Most High God. Though tempted, he resisted every enticement, remaining faithful to his mission and grounded in trust.

This time of prayer invites us to see Jesus as our model: one who examined his life with honesty, made deliberate choices, and valued his personal ministry of building the Kingdom. Together, we will reflect on how we are called to participate in that ministry today.

The retreat will include scripture, guided meditation, quiet reflection, time for sharing, and a closing prayer.

Please register by March 2.

After receiving your registration, you will receive a confirmation email from us which will be your invoice. We never want our retreat costs to be prohibitive to anyone who wants to attend our programs, so we are pleased to offer scholarships. Fill out our simple scholarship request form now!
