Retreat & Conference Center Re-Opening Suggestions
As states begin to re-open, many are wondering how to prepare for retreat guests. We have started to compile guidance on suggested protocols to prepare for, welcome, and serve guests safely.

When you book a retreat at Dubose...
We’re in the process of finalizing plans to hold the 2020 Camp Program Summit at Dubose Conference Center in Tennessee (Save the date! October 5-8, 2020!). But that’s not technically here nor there for this post.

I wanted to share this awesome practice with the rest of the ECCC community: When Stephanie, Dubose’s Guest Services Manager, sent me the rental agreement, she also sent me beautiful photos to use in our marketing materials, with a link to a Google Drive for more. Instantly, my life as a retreat coordinator is that much easier! I complimented her on this great idea, and she shared that not only does sharing photos of the space help with conversations around set-up, it has also made a huge difference in conversions from phone call to booking.
Way to go, Dubose!
Creating Tables of Our Own
As we approach Thanksgiving, I am moved to share this piece by the Rev. Broderick Greer from the On Being Project. A former Episcopal Service Corps member, Broderick reflects on how and why we gather around tables to share food and our selves.
The centrality of food in the shape of Christian life is no different from its influence in the rest of life. If one becomes a spiritual child in baptism, then the bread and wine of the Eucharist is, for lack of a better term, the Gerber baby food of the baptized life. Toward the Eucharist moves the rest of life, and from it flows the whole of life. It is the embodiment of the prayer Jesus taught us, the bread we need for that day and that day only, not a sacramental hoarding of resources better put to use through just distribution.
