A weekend away to rest, reconnect, and encounter God.
Step away from the noise and into something slower, deeper, and life-giving. ENCOUNTER Retreat is a two-night getaway designed for you to pause, breathe, and be refreshed—spiritually, emotionally, and relationally.
This weekend is an invitation to meet with God through heartfelt worship, powerful messages, and quiet moments where you can simply be still.
But it’s also a time for joy, laughter, and meaningful connection!
Whether you come with friends or arrive on your own, you’ll leave feeling RENEWED, ENCOURAGED, and more CONNECTED—to God and to others.
