About

The Theme

During special occasions like Christmas or retreats, we often experience spiritual highs that ignite a passion to serve God in our daily lives. However, this fervor can sometimes fade over time.

The question then arises:

How do we sustain that spiritual momentum? How do we persevere in faith through all seasons?

These questions will be addressed at this year's European Reformed Evangelical Convention (EREC). The theme for this year is The Gift of Perseverance. Perseverance means maintaining the fire of faith in every season. This retreat is not just about a temporary boost; it's about fostering a lasting commitment to your spiritual journey. Come and discover how to keep your inner fire burning brightly, ensuring that your faith remains strong and impactful in your everyday life. Join us and register now!
