Due to the demands of their calling, pastors often find it difficult to get time away to refresh and renew. Doing so is particularly difficult for bivocational pastors and often beyond the financial reach of all pastors. But help is available!
Thanks to the generosity of various individuals and organizations, there are several places in the United States where pastors and their spouses can find free lodging for times of rest and refreshment.
