"Deck the Halls" - Preparing our hearts and homes for the arrival of the Christ Child.

Rev. Mick Macintyre - Chaplain, Canadian Forces


Welcome to winter! It's a busy time of year - that's why you're invited to a retreat at camp. Commit to reflect, come be challenged and equipped, while engaging in a strong community. 


Join us for a weekend at camp, and enjoy some time outdoors with friends. We'll have a relaxing weekend among great people, forming relationships and building each other up, and learning a thing or two along the way.


Activities include snowshoeing, climbing wall, snacks, knitting by the fire, wearing things knitted by the fire, and general hilarity. Skating on the lake, tobogganing, and skiing are always big hits.


Evening activities will include a gift exchange (homemade or re-gifts only, no purchases!) and a Coffee House talent show.

Renew Spiritual Retreat for Women

Rev. Prema Samuel (Assistant to the Bishop of the Alberta Synod of the ELCIC)

Arrive 8-8:30pm on Friday               Wrap-up 12:30pm on Sunday

 

This is a weekend for women to come together to be renewed - in their faith, in their life, in their relationships. Through prayer, teaching and meditation, we will experience the grace of God. 

 

This weekend runs at a slower pace than many of our retreats, with an intentional focus on rest and spiritual renewal, however we will still have lots of fun, laughter, worship, great food and growth.


Our Renewing Stories

Stories make our lives. We hear stories! We live stories! We share and teach through stories! 

May we come to listen to and participate in stories that RENEW us. 

God's love comes to us embodied in Christ. As Christians we have heard the story that teaches us. As Christ's story, and stories he spoke renew us, we come to be reminded of the living stories.

Retreat of our Own

  • Connect and reconnect with new and old friends.
  • Grow in faith and understanding by listening to a gifted theologian and in worship.

Registration is through RETREAT OF OUR OWN
