Programs

Opportunities to Explore

In addition to Sunday service, we gather in many ways to build community, explore God's messages, and celebrate life. Read more about the types of programs we offer below and check out our calendar for upcoming events.

Retreats

Our nature-based retreats are about getting away and going deeper. Our first retreat was at the Chincoteague Bay Field Station, an educational marine lab. Fourteen people gathered together to encounter God in our natural world through immersive, educational experiences led by marine educators. We learned about intertidal zones and adaptation, held species like sea urchins and sponges and shrimp that live on the sea floor, and learned how dunes and barrier islands are formed and move. We walked on an undeveloped beach where we discovered (and took home!) many beautiful whelk shells.

God is always speaking through creation, and we shared together the spiritual lessons we learned, especially around what’s under the surface of the water and under the surface of our lives.

 

Like everything else about WWC, our retreats are open to everyone, anywhere, regardless of your current or past relationship with church.
