Retreat Grants

Application deadline: August 25

A limited number of $110 grants are available to cover most of the cost of attending the CFW fall retreat. Total cost (including transportation by bus) of the retreat will be $210 for a double-occupancy room, so those receiving grants will contribute $100 toward the retreat. Click here for more information about the retreat.

Grants are restricted to artists who are:

  • pursuing their creative work professionally, at least part-time (i.e. do not have a full-time "survival" job in addition to their creative work); and
  • are Redeemer members (or members of a Redeemer church plant), or are actively involved in service at Redeemer, whether in the arts ministry or some other ministry area.

To apply for a grant, please send an email to Luann Jennings, Program Director of Arts Ministries, at luann@redeemer.com, including the following information. Write a short paragraph (2-4 sentences) for each of the four sections. All applications are confidential.

  • Describe your creative field of endeavor. How is your career progressing?
  • Describe your relationship with Redeemer. How have you been involved at Redeemer (or a Redeemer church plant), how long, and why?
  • Describe your interest in attending the fall retreat. How will it benefit you, professionally and spiritually?
  • Describe your current income sources. Why do you need this grant?

Applicants will be notified of grant decisions by August 25. Registration and full payment of remaining $100 in fees required by September 1. Email luann@redeemer.com with questions.
