Moon River Spiritual Academy |
 Join us on the banks of Moon River at beautiful Wesley Gardens for our series of spiritual retreats! Moon River Spiritual Academy allows you to experience speakers on a variety of topics to help deepen your spiritual life. This exciting new ministry began in 2009, and we’re already seeing tremendous interest! Moon River Spiritual Academies are held three to four times each year. Programs begin on a Friday evening and go through Saturday afternoon. Great speakers in a beautiful environment – what better way to experience God’s work in your life! Some of our past speakers were Don and Emily Saliers (January 2010), Dr. Craig Rikard (September 2009) and Marva Dawn (February 2009). For more information, please contact Rev. Karen Kilhefner.
