Retreats
"Come away by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” (Mark 6:31). We recognize the importance of taking time away to deepen our relationship with God which in turn helps us in our relationships with one another. We offer retreats for women and married couples with the goal of expanding it to other groups.
