After a several-year hiatus, the Couples’ Retreat is back! We’re delighted to welcome Bruce and Carolyn Hindmarsh, who will be sharing from their recent book, At the Feet of Jesus: A Guide to Encountering Christ in the Gospels. Musicians Andy and Jill Gullahorn will lead us in songs that invite both laughter and tears. And distinguished artists Sedrick and Letitia Huckaby will join their talents to offer an art experience you won’t want to miss. Together, these gifted guides will help us explore the weekend’s theme:
Jesus often visited the home of his friends Martha, Mary, and Lazarus—a place of ordinary life, full of love, loss, distraction, and devotion. This retreat invites us to “open our homes” to the Lord—not just our physical spaces, but our inner lives. We’ll focus especially on Mary of Bethany, who sat at Jesus’ feet and listened with her whole heart. Her response offers a model of friendship with Christ: attentive, honest, and wholehearted. Wherever you are in life or faith, come be strengthened in hope and drawn deeper into the presence of the One who makes his home with us.
All winter retreats will use a lottery-based registration system. To enter the lottery, simply join the waitlist for the retreat you’d like to attend.
🕙 From 10:00 a.m. (CT) on Thursday, August 7
🕙 Until 10:00 a.m. (CT) on Monday, August 11
After the registration window closes, participants will be randomly selected until each retreat is full. You will be notified by the end of the day on Monday, August 18 whether or not you got into the retreat. If you are not selected, you will remain on the waitlist and we will contact you if a spot opens up.
