REQUEST MORE INFO

Standing Stone Retreats are designed to help strengthen and encourage ministry couples (a husband and a wife) in a safe and caring environment. They are private, highly personalized and for only one ministry couple at a time. They are hosted by one couple – our retreat-trained shepherds. We prayerfully match our shepherds with ministry couples based on similar ministry and life experiences.

A RETREAT WEEK IS:

• 6 night & 7 days

• Devoted to rest, fun activities, great food and pampering care

• Conversations on important issues facing  ministry couples.

[Examples: ministry calling, health & wholeness, navigating hurt, marriage enrichment, vision for the future]

• Designed to prayerfully encourage and build up ministry couples with a renewed awareness of God’s work in their life, ministry and marriage

WHAT MAKES STANDING STONE RETREATS SO DIFFERENT?

Every Standing Stone Retreat is held in a beautiful location, where the ministry couple is truly showered in an atmosphere of faith, hope, and love. We do our utmost to create a genuinely relaxing environment. Those being cared for arrive at serene properties that are peaceful, picturesque, and loaded with natural beauty.
 
Our unique retreat settings mean that there are no distractions from family members, church members, or other obligations. The goal of our retreat shepherds is to make the couple feel “exclusively cherished.”  And since the retreat is small—just four people—adaptions and changes are easy to make so that the ministry couple can receive what they truly need. There is a beautiful blend of time together and time alone.
 
A bonus of a Standing Stone Retreat is that the ministry couple and the retreat shepherds form a lasting bond.  After the retreat has ended, the retreat shepherds will make themselves available as an ongoing resource for them as desired.
