Pastors' Gathering

Thrive welcomes you to a gathering created specifically for CRC parish pastors, regional pastors, and chaplains. Be refreshed as you step away from the demands of ministry and life to reflect on your wellbeing and your relationship with God.

This event’s goal is to offer active CRC pastors and chaplains a safe place in which to gather for support, encouragement, learning, worship and fellowship. Synod 2025 made a commitment to “encourage the churches and classes to support the spiritual health of pastoral spouses” (Agenda 2025, Overture 4). One immediate way Thrive hopes to support CRC pastors’ spouses is by creating space for spouses at this year’s Pastors’ Gathering.

Thrive is encouraging church councils to respond to Overture 4 by providing funds to cover spouses’ attendance. Spouses, we hope you’ll take us up on our offer and:

• Enjoy a 2-night stay in Niagara Falls
• Attend plenary and worship sessions
• Participate in planned spouses’ breakout sessions

Who else would you like to see there?  We encourage you to reach out and invite some of your fellow pastors and chaplains.
