This year IBR has received an Ecosystem Support grant from the Imago Dei Fund (IDF) to extend the work that IBR does to support women scholars. IDF has partnered in the past with IBR to support the annual IBR Women Scholars’ Breakfast. This extended grant will allow IBR to create several new initiatives including a Summer Writing Retreat in June 14–19, 2020 at The Hideaway in Colorado Springs, CO. The retreat is fully-funded and will be led by Dr. Lynn Cohick and Dr. Beth Stovell. IBR women members who have a current individual writing project underway are encouraged to apply. The retreat will include reserved times for writing, times for prayer and worship, shared meals, and fellowship. A committee comprised of IBR members and board members (not including Lynn Cohick and Beth Stovell) will evaluate applications.
Applications are due February 7, 2020 and applicants will receive notification of response by February 29, 2020.
If you have any questions, please contact Beth Stovell at bstovell@ambrose.edu.
