Thriving Children Retreat

CBF Virginia, CBF Thriving Children Initiative, and the Baugh Center for Baptist Leadership are partnering to offer a two-day session on neurodiversity in children’s ministry. This is an opportunity for churches to gather for an intentional time to consider and learn about neurodivergence and give attention to the “how’s and why’s” of children’s ministry.

February 27-28, 2026

Participants may also choose to attend as day-only attendees for the same $25 registration fee.
