A 2 day musicians’ retreat in Baltimore, Maryland

Invitation

Holy Week, especially Easter Sunday, can be the most wonderful and yet exhausting time of year for church musicians and worship leaders. Taking time away to rest, reflect, and re-inspire after the intensity of that week is important. Join host Brian Hehn for a few days rest in the beautiful historic neighborhood of Federal Hill, just a 5-minute walk to the Inner Harbor of Baltimore. We’ve rented a townhome just blocks away from restaurants and sight-seeing opportunities. Home-cooked meals and relaxation with friends awaits!
