Free Retreats for Missionaries

The following organizations offer missionaries retreats at no charge. These are times of spiritual refreshment rather than just vacation times, but missionaries basically chose their own activities with the approval of the organization.

Rev. Raymond Woodward returned to his hometown of Fredericton to become the Lead Pastor of Capital Community Church on Pentecost Sunday in June 2001. He did his theological training at Northeast Christian College, where he also met his wife Beverley. They married in 1983 and now have two teenage children, Emily & Matthew. Raymond has served as an instructor for theology, music, computer and business subjects at United Pentecostal Bible Institute, CompuCollege School of Business and the New Brunswick Community College, and has also completed a degree in Adult Education at the University of New Brunswick. He also did a ten-year stint as the producer and host of a gospel radio show.

Nearly 25 years of pastoral ministry have seen Raymond travel extensively in the United States, Canada and abroad, sharing the Word of God in numerous meetings and conferences. He is an ordained minister of the United Pentecostal Church International and a sought-after Bible teacher.

The Woodwards live on the banks of the beautiful Nashwaak River in Marysville, an historic 19th century mill town adjacent to Fredericton where Raymond enjoys reading, biking and kayaking in his spare time.
