It’s worth fighting for.

“Marriage has the power to set the course of your life as a whole. If your marriage is strong, even if all the circumstances in your life around you are filled with trouble and weakness, it won’t matter. You will be able to move out into the world in strength.”

Tim Keller

Retreat Details.

We take our oath of service seriously. We hold it in high regard and seek to serve with honor.

What about our marriage oath? Do we recognize the sanctity and holiness of that oath? Do we seek to honor and love our spouse even more than we do our department or agency?

This retreat has prayerfully been designed with the hopes of challenging and encouraging you in your marriage, while also creating space for you to spend precious quality time with your spouse.

We would encourage couples to take advantage of discounted room rates and extend their weekend by staying the night before or after the retreat.
