Christian Grandparenting Network is pleased to recommend the following conferences and retreats.

The Nuts and Bolts of Godly Grandparenting

Speaker: Sherry Schumann

As grandparents, many of us have bought the cultural lie that we are inconsequential in the lives of our children and grandchildren. This lie tells us to retire to “leisureville.” It tells us that, if we want a relationship with our grandchildren, we need to provide expensive presents and fancy trips. Nothing, however, is further from the Truth.

Join Sherry Schumann as she digs into Scripture and uncovers what the Bible says about our role as grandparents. Discover what it means to leave a Gospel shaped Legacy. Learn practical ways to share your faith stories with your grandchildren, offer them the gift of the spoken blessing, and commit yourselves as prayer warriors interceding regularly on their behalf.

Unleashing the Power of Prayer

Speaker: Sherry Schumann

Scripture tells us, “The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective” (James 5:16). Why, then, do so many believers feel as though their prayers are powerless and ineffective?

Join Sherry Schumann for a one-or-two-day retreat as she digs into God’s Word and examines ways to step up our prayer life, thereby unleashing the power or prayer. This retreat features sis 45-minute sessions, which include the following topics: Intimacy with the Savior, Intimacy with the Holy Spirit, Hindrances to Our Approach to Prayer, Hindrances to the Work of Prayer, Intercessory Prayer and Prayers of Thanksgiving and Adoration.

This retreat can be customized to fit your time frame.

Grandmas Gathering

Speaker: Sherry Schumann

Grab your Bible and favorite jammies and join us for a grandmother’s overnight. Whether your grandchildren call you Grandma, Gram or Nana, you’ll enjoy engaging with other grandmothers as you explore God’s call for this season of life.

Signature features of a Grandma’s Gathering include an intimate setting limited to a maximum of twenty-five attendees, Scripture based teaching, engaging discussions, heartfelt connections, devoted times of prayer, and snacks galore!

Sherry Schumann currently offers three Grandma’s Gatherings from which you can choose: Creating a Legacy for Your Grandchildren, Unleashing the Power of Prayer, and Shepherding Your Grandchildren According to Psalm 23.

Shepherding Our Grandchildren According to the Twenty-third Psalm

Speaker: Sherry Schumann

David, the Shepherd-King, penned the twenty-third psalm approximately 1000 years before our Savior’s birth. Despite its age, this beloved psalm is as pertinent and timely today as it was 3000 years ago.

Join Sherry Schumann for this one-or-two-day conference as she digs into Psalm 23, verse-by-verse. Look at King David’s words through a shepherd’s eyes. Learn about the work of a shepherd, the characteristics of sheep, the unique relationship between a shepherd and his sheep, and how this relationship serves as a metaphor for our own relationship with God. Carry this metaphor one-step further and discover godly ways to shepherd your grandchildren and lead them to Christ.

This conference can be customized to fit your time frame.
