Nehemiah Retreat

Sunday, May 2 through Friday, May 7, 2010, at Unity Village

Rebuild. Renew. Rejoice.

Join us for the second Nehemiah Retreat of 2010 as we rebuild and restore the sacred grounds of Unity Village. In exchange for repair work every day, you'll enjoy:

• Programs focusing on fellowship, spiritual renewal and growth.
• Room and board for the week.
• A celebratory banquet.
• The opportunity to do “a great work.” (Neh. 6:3)

This will be a unique retreat experience as our guests are directly involved with these restoration projects:
