Who are the SoulJourners?
Life is a journey to be lived with mind, heart and soul. As we mature in our journey we become storehouses of wisdom and truth, as well as a degree of wealth. The SoulJourners Retreat (formerly the Senior Adult Conference) gives folks time together to reflect, grow, befriend, renew and seek God.
