Personal Debriefing Retreats

Personal Debriefing Retreats using our model, “Exchange at the Cross,” are run by Le Rucher certified debriefers in various locations around the world each year. This retreat is unique in that it is a combination of a group and a personal debrief.  A special synergy happens when people interact with others who have gone through similar experiences in different countries.

Combining the group interactions with your personal time with a debriefer gives you the much-needed time to grow, learn and reflect individually on your personal journey as a cross-cultural worker.  You are given space to reflect on your reactions to the events of your life and how you have been affected–including your triumphs, disappointments, conflicts and other changes and concerns.  You will have the opportunity to bring closure (where needed) and bring pressing issues into the presence of God in a safe, peaceful environment.

An Exchange at the Cross Debriefing retreat includes . . .

. . .Personal sessions with a debriefer on your own unless you have come with a team or as a couple.

. . .Plenary sessions for worship, teaching, and general feedback.

. . .Time for personal reflection and meditation.

. . .Debriefing and counseling provided from a Christian, Biblically-based worldview by pastoral care workers trained in debriefing and counseling skills. Prayer ministry is normally a part of this process, with the consent of those participating.
