Summit Of Light

Called to Serve Christian Ministers

Minister Oleatha Bethea

Beverly Lyons

Founded in October 1999 by Minister Oleatha Everett Bethea, Summit of Light is a Christ-
centered, 501(c)(3) ministry with a divine mandate to “minister to ministers.” Praying for, with,
and encouraging them is a significant part of what they do; and Renewed to Soar: Inspiration
from Summit of Light is a book that was written expressly for them.

Another part of Summit of Light’s divine mandate is to provide the men and women of God who
are actively serving small to medium-sized congregations or ministries with times and places
where they may rest. They currently do this by sponsoring a limited number of mini sabbaticals
each year.

With similar missions and passions, En Gedi Retreat and Summit of Light became ministry
partners in May 2017. While similar, there are major differences regarding what our ministries
can offer pastors at this time. Summit of Light serves mostly on the East Coast but even if you
do not live in this geographic region and would like more information about mini sabbaticals,
contact them directly.
