Over two days in late June the team came together for a retreat! Its purpose was to focus on personal spiritual growth and organisational planning. We were blessed to use the guest house at Homes of Hope for our retreat. This allowed the last afternoon to be a fruitful time of discussion and collaboration with the community team from Homes of Hope.

The theme for our time together came from this verse, Romans 15:14 “I myself am convinced, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, complete in knowledge and competent to instruct one another” From this verse we investigated four essential areas for the Operation Foundation team; Being: Knowing: Doing: Loving.

What we discovered from our collective passion is the diversity and strength of our combined gifts, and our commitment to lives of integrity. Working together on the core values and our essential practice was invigorating.
