January is Full — But March is Open!
We’re thrilled by the response to EQ Boot Camp and excited to invite pastors, staff, and ministry leaders to our March 9–11, 2026 retreat at Loon Lake Retreat Centre (Maple Ridge, BC)!
EQ Boot Camp is an intensive, interactive program designed to equip ministry leaders with essential emotional intelligence (EQ) skills. Through engaging sessions and practical exercises, participants will:
-
Grow in self-awareness and recognize their unique leadership strengths
-
Deepen their leadership effectiveness
-
Develop tools for fostering healthier team dynamics
-
Strengthen their ability to navigate challenging ministry situations
-
Build meaningful connections with other ministry leaders
Why Emotional Intelligence Matters in Ministry
Self-awareness is the foundation of effective leadership. When leaders understand themselves better, they lead with greater authenticity, communicate more clearly, and build stronger, more resilient relationships within their congregations.
Invest in Your Team
EQ Boot Camp is more than professional development—it’s an investment in the spiritual and emotional health of your ministry team. The insights and skills gained through this experience benefit not only individual leaders but the entire church community.
The retreat cost includes all program materials, accommodations, and meals. Each participant will also complete The Birkman Assessment, a powerful tool that provides valuable insights into personality, motivations, and behavior patterns—helping you make the most of your EQ Boot Camp experience.
