The Assemblée Évangélique Arche de l’Éternel de France is proud to host a full-day Spiritual Renewal Workshop, designed to provide members and visitors with an opportunity to deepen their faith, refresh their spiritual practices, and strengthen their connection with God. This event is open to all members of the community and anyone interested in exploring and renewing their Christian faith.

The day begins at 9:00 AM with an opening prayer and welcome session led by the association’s pastoral team. This session will set the tone for the day, emphasizing reflection, devotion, and a commitment to personal and communal spiritual growth. Attendees will be guided in a brief meditation exercise to center their thoughts and prepare for a day of focused spiritual engagement.

From 9:30 AM to 11:00 AM, participants will join the Scripture Study Session, where selected passages from the Bible will be explored in depth. Facilitated by experienced members and spiritual mentors, this session will focus on interpreting biblical texts, understanding their relevance in modern life, and applying lessons to daily experiences. Attendees will have opportunities to ask questions, share insights, and participate in guided group discussions.

A short break will follow from 11:00 AM to 11:30 AM, during which light refreshments will be served. Participants are encouraged to interact with one another, building connections and sharing reflections on their faith journeys. Networking and fellowship are central to the event, reinforcing the sense of community that our association seeks to nurture.

The second session, Personal Reflection and Prayer, runs from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM. Attendees will be guided through exercises in prayer, journaling, and meditation. This session emphasizes personal introspection, helping participants identify areas of spiritual growth, set intentions for their faith practice, and connect more deeply with God. Mentors will be available to offer guidance and support, ensuring that everyone benefits fully from this reflective period.

A communal lunch is scheduled from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM, allowing participants to continue fellowship in a relaxed setting. After lunch, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM, the workshop will continue with the Group Workshop on Faith in Action. This interactive session encourages participants to discuss ways to apply their renewed spiritual insights to everyday life, including family, work, and community service. Case studies, role-playing exercises, and group brainstorming will help members translate spiritual reflection into practical action.

The day concludes with a Closing Prayer and Sharing Session from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Participants will have the opportunity to share their experiences, insights, and personal reflections from the day. The pastoral team will provide encouragement and guidance on how to maintain momentum in spiritual renewal beyond the event.

This Spiritual Renewal Workshop promises to be an enriching experience, combining education, reflection, prayer, and fellowship. Attendees will leave with renewed faith, practical tools for daily spiritual practice, and strengthened bonds within the community.
