Spiritual Formation

The Spiritual Formation is a ministry of the Northern Illinois Conference designed to respond to the vision of the conference to raise up spiritual leaders for Christ. Our goal is to offer quality retreat courses which focus on a variety of skills which empower both laity and clergy in their role as spiritual leaders in the church and in the world.

You are the light of the world … Matthew 5:14
