Fall Retreat

The Grace Church Fall Retreat is built around a series of talks, meals, and fellowship opportunities. It is a great time to get away (but not too far away!), relax, learn, and be rejuvenated. Nursery care and children's programming is available.

2024 Fall Retreat

Made in God's Image: A Beginner's Guide to Biblical Personhood

Sept 20 - Sept 21

What is a man? What is a woman? What is…a person? We are created in the image of God, but what does that mean? Today’s world is answering these questions in all kinds of ways, often without reference to God’s specific revelation: the Bible and the person and work of Jesus Christ. There’s good news for those of us seeking answers to these questions: God has spoken! At the 2024 Grace Anglican Fall Retreat, join Jady and Liza Koch to explore what the creator of all things says about what it means to be—and live as—part of his creation.

The Rev. Dr. John D. Koch is a graduate of Washington & Lee University (2000) and Trinity School for Ministry (2007). Rev. Jady earned his Doctorate in Systematic Theology at the University of Humboldt in Berlin, Germany in 2014. In addition to various articles and lectures, he's the author of The Distinction Between Law and Gospel as the Basis and Boundary of Theological Reflection, which was published in 2016 (Mohr/Siebeck), and which explores the interrelationship between the doctrine of justification by faith alone and the preaching and teaching ministry of the church. Jady is Rector of St. Luke's Anglican Church on Hilton Head Island. He and his wife, Liza, have five children (Tucker, John, Carrington, Garland and Davis) and about a thousand house plants.
