Liturgy Collective is a retreat gathering that offers pastors, musicians, and liturgists a few days of rest, connection, and growth. For church staff that regularly plan and lead worship services, we hope this time will help provide renewal and reflection through curated worship services, learning together, eating together, and the fostering of community. This year, speakers and musicians from across the country will help us consider rest as we think through rest on a personal level, the rest of the Sabbath, and heaven as a place of rest. We encourage musicians and pastors to consider attending together, and we hope you’ll join us as we seek to be encouraged in our work around worship.

“I feel like in some ways I’ve been waiting my whole ministry for this conference. The topics, material, and especially the worship were just what my soul needed right now.”
