About En Gedi Restoration Center
Caring for the Shepherds Who Care for Others
In rural regions across East Africa, pastors often serve tirelessly, ministering to their communities while neglecting their own well-being. Many suffer in silence—burning out, falling ill, or stepping away from ministry altogether—not from lack of calling, but from lack of care.
At En Gedi Restoration Center, we believe that ministers shouldn’t have to break down before receiving support. That’s why we exist: to give them a chance to rest before they’re forced to stop.
Why it matters
Most pastors in rural areas serve under immense pressure, often without pay, sabbatical, or access to quality healthcare. Without intervention, they face:
Preventable medical issues
Marital strain
Mental exhaustion
Ministry burnout
This not only affects their families—it weakens entire congregations and communities.
En Gedi Restoration Center Aims to change that story
With your support, we offer rest, self-care training, and healing—before the crisis hits. This preventive model reduces long-term healthcare costs, strengthens pastors and their families, and revitalizes churches through empowered, healthy and happy ministers.
Your Role in the Mission
Every donation helps subsidize retreat costs so that ministers can attend regardless of their financial situation.
ERC is committed to covering a significant portion of expenses to ensure accessibility. With your partnership, we can reach more pastors, build long-term sustainability, and strengthen communities from the inside out.
“When you care for the minister, you care for the entire church.”
