Abide Retreats are centered on the truth that God is not distant from our pain. He is Love itself, and He meets us directly in the places we have been wounded. Through Scripture, teaching, fellowship, and intentional solitude, we will explore how the absence of love shapes our lives, and how the perfect Love of Christ restores what has been broken. Participants can expect space to slow down, encounter God, and begin experiencing healing not as a concept, but as a relationship with the One who laid down His life to bring us back to Him.

What to expect:

  • Group teachings centered on God's Word

  • Solitude time for prayer and worship with Jesus

  • Free Time: Go hiking, read, rest, throw axes, play archery tag or simply hang out. Free time is where friendships are formed, and souls are refreshed.

  • Most importantly: You will encounter Jesus through His Holy Spirit and through His people

Abide Retreats

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”

Matthew 11:28-30

Forced overtime, training during time off, court obligations, deployments, and traumatic calls. Such are the demands of your profession. You experience exhaustion on physical, mental, and spiritual levels. We are designed for rest, yet many of us struggle to apply it to our lives.

What does it mean to find rest in Christ? How can we apply this promise to our life? Our upcoming Abide Retreat aims to delve into God's Word, guiding you to discover His promise for rest and peace in your life.
