Men’s Retreat
Theme: Soul Work
Join us for a meaningful 2-night getaway as we explore what it looks like to live whole and integrated lives. This retreat offers space to step away from the noise, rest, connect with others, and pay attention to the state of our souls and bodies. We look forward to a weekend of encouragement, teaching, and honest reflection as we listen for how God meets us in our stories—and shapes our identity, relationships, and purpose.

Women’s Retreat
Theme: Presence
We invite you to a refreshing weekend away as we center our hearts on God’s presence – with us, in us, and through us. A retreat is a great opportunity to carve out time to connect and be fully present with God and one another. We are excited to have Pastor Susie Gomez from Midtown Church speak to us this year! Let’s come together and enjoy a time of encouragement, reflection and joy as we lean into His promise: “My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” — Exodus 33:14
