Retreats

Engaging people to know Christ, through the Word, the outdoors and relationships

 

“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” – Matthew 11:28.

In a broken world we can easily find ourselves worn down underneath endless weights and pressures, but the invitation of Christ is to find rest in Him. Our prayer for all who attend these retreats is that they would enter into a rest far beyond any luxury the world has to offer, and that finding the rest that is in Christ, they could remain in His rest even as they go. Come seek the Lord with us in His Word and find that His yoke is easy, and His burden is light.

Designed For Doxology

All of us are designed to glorify the Lord. The beautiful grace of God is that in beholding His glory, we find complete satisfaction in Him and Him alone. Come explore the Scriptures with us as we learn to savor, see, be stunned by, and be sustained by the glory of God.

  • “We love the opportunity to be challenged by excellent Bible teaching in the context of the Rocky Mountains.  A bonus for us has been the annual renewal of friendships and the making of new ones."

  • “My time and experience at the Ravencrest Men’s Retreat was simply comforting, encouraging, and most edifying; all of which helped me specifically to engage properly in the life challenges ahead. It takes God to be a man."

    Chet Texas
  • "Each year I eagerly look forward to Women's Week at Ravencrest. Located in God's beautiful creation -- the Rocky Mountains -- Ravencrest provides a glorious week of learning from lectures by an outstanding staff and hearing the truth of God's Word. Women's Week is a refreshing and renewing conference that offers quiet time to be with God plus activities of every sort. There is a Christian fellowship and love that shines from God through the Ravencrest staff. Thank you for opening the Chalet to us each year."
