These Christian retreats take place in a worshipful atmosphere and peaceful surroundings. They offer a safe place for participants to be open to themselves, to each other and to God for personal growth and healing. 

Our experienced facilitators use as appropriate various therapeutic approaches including Gestalt, all through an openness to the healing work of the Holy Spirit. 
         
Gestalt approaches are creative, insisting on freedom of choice and personal responsibility.

NB.It is not a requirement that group members be professing Christians, but this is the context in which the group runs.

from  The Journey  by Mary Oliver©

One day you finally knew              
What you had to do, and began,
Though the voices around you
Kept shouting
Their bad advice—

But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,and
there was a new voice
which you slowly 
recognized as your own.....              

                                                  ....that kept you company
as you strode deeper and
deeper into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do—
determined to save
the only life you could save.
