Missio Lincoln
launched fall 2024.
Apply to join the 2025-26 cohort!
What We Do
Missio Lincoln runs September to April. Participants gather monthly as a full cohort on Thursdays, except in October and March when they gather for two-day retreats. Gatherings include meals, dwelling in the Word, guests, and conversation with one another around our focusing questions: Where are we? What is God up to here? How is the Spirit inviting us to join? Participants also gather monthly in triads with a coach for coaching. Between gatherings, we engage with neighbors and foster holy imagination through reading. The time commitment is about 8 hours a month, except October and March which include two full days.
​
Cohorts: 10am-2pm, Thursdays
Retreats: October and March
