Pastoral Resources

What is the Clergy Care Network?

The Clergy Care Network is a ministry based out of Focus on the Family Canada. With the support of Canadian denominations, we exist to provide confidential support and encouragement to Canadian pastors, their spouses and their children. Our toll-free line (1.888.5.CLERGY) provides information, consultation, counselling, resources and referrals.

We welcome your calls and look forward to hearing from you! You may also reach us via email at info@clergycare.ca. Please see our FAQ page for more information on CCN.

Pastoral Retreat Network

Founded in 1997, Pastors Retreat Network offers five-day retreats to pastors and pastor couples. Our programs balance solitude and community time. Scripture reading and meditation are at the heart of the experience.

Pastor Retreat Network’s strategy flows out of a profound vision: To glorify God and build His kingdom by strengthening Christian pastors for better ministry to the people they lead.

We do this by providing a self-directed and Christ-centered retreat experience, where God prompts Christian pastors to feel His presence, discern His will and follow His leading. These spiritually strengthened pastors will be empowered by God to transform their ministries and build His kingdom.
