The New Brunswick Christian Ashram, like all United Christian Ashrams, is inter-denominational and inter-racial. Titles and other symbols of distinction are set aside that we may worship as true brothers and sisters in Christ. This 3-day retreat is held the second week in August in the beautiful Beulah Camp in Brown’s Flat, New Brunswick. The scenic Long Reach of Saint John River is the backdrop for a time of sharing and spiritual growth.
Evangelist
Reverend Gordon Thompson is a graduate of Wycliffe College, Toronto, and has been in ordained ministry for over 34 years. He is now retired and living in northern New Brunswick where he frequently leads services and preaches. Brother Gordon is no stranger to the Christian Ashram, having spoken at many retreats and conferences including the Atlantic, Central Ontario, and New Brunswick and various one-day Ashrams. He has a passion for preaching and teaching, especially the Good News of Salvation in Jesus Christ. Gordon and Bell have been married for 51 years. They have three grown children and three grandchildren.
Bible Teacher
Phyllis practiced nursing in N.B. for 20 years before hearing the call to become an ordained minister in the Congregational Christian Church in Canada. She was ordained in 1994 and earned a PhD in Church Administration and Leadership Development in 2011. She pastored churches in N.B. and her native N.S. before moving to Toronto in 2004 to serve as National Director for the Canadian Bible Society until 2007 when she returned to live in Dartmouth, NS. Her passion in ministry is leadership development, conflict management, as well as both corporate and personal spiritual formation. She is still involved in pastoral ministry on a part-time basis. Phyllis has spoken at several Christian Ashrams in NS, NB and Central ON as either Evangelist or Bible Teacher since 2011 until the present.
Local Director
The New Brunswick Christian Ashram grew out of the success enjoyed by the Atlantic Christian Ashram and the desire by the New Brunswick members of the Atlantic to bring the Ashram movement to New Brunswick.
Our first Ashram was held in New Brunswick in 2001, and this year we are celebrating our 20th consecutive Ashram, with a three year pause caused by the pandemic.
The Ashram movement has always meant a lot to our family as a place to come apart from the world, to enjoy God's creation in beautiful place, and to reconnect with what it means to know that JESUS IS LORD!
