What to Expect

This retreat offers more than just a getaway -- it's a chance to encounter God in a deeper way as we dig into 2 Timothy, be surrounded by authentic community, worship, grow in friendships, enjoy games, activities, and relaxed free time.

There's something powerful about stepping away from the noise of daily life to refocus on what truly matters -- that's the beauty of a retreat. And everything is included, so no additional costs and the only decisions are what to do in your free time! You'll leave refreshed, encouraged, and with memories that last long after you return home.

About the Retreat

ABOUT THE THEME: OUR HOLY CALLING — PAUL’S FINAL PLEA

Bound by chains in Rome during the persecution led by Caesar Nero, Paul pens his last words to Timothy. Paul encourages him to be strong without fear, hold fast to the Word of God and fight the good fight. In this letter, we now hear the voice of God encouraging all His children to do the same. Meeting us in the trenches of our lives with hope, grace and truth, God reveals to us his character and a vision for life that can withstand even the darkest of moments.
