2023 WATCHMEN RETREAT

Thursday, 2 November 2023 - Monday, 6 November 2023
Majodi Centre, Taman Perindustrian Sri Plentong, 81750 Masai, Johor, Malaysia 81750

If we are not careful, we can easily allow the noise of the world to drown out the still, small voice of God within us. When this happens, we can stray from God, and be swept by the currents of the world.

In this retreat, come away with Him to learn how you can anchor your faith, and be a disciple who stays vigilant and is attentive to the Holy Spirit. Rest in His presence and truths, and be strengthened to remain steadfast in your walk with Him.

Led by the Episcopal Vicar for the New Evangelisation, Rev. Fr. Terence Pereira, together with Gloria Patri Charismatic Ministry, the Watchmen Retreat will include talks, sharing, praise and worship, as well as spiritual counselling.

Testimonies

“I found the talk on Spiritual Warfare & how to stand guard to be the most beneficial.” – Caroline

“The spiritual counselling was very comforting. I have encountered the following words in daily scripture, but to have someone tell me, ‘my daughter. I am with you. I am pleased with you. My mother is with you.’ That was very powerful.” – Cindy

“All the talks are beneficial. At each talk there were points that I was prompted to reflect on and make a change in my life to be a watchman.” – Sulyni
