NOTE:
Our retreats are designed for clergy and ministerial staff
Wellspring Sanctuary Retreats
No packing necessary.
When a longer, farther-away retreat isn’t possible, come spend the day with us. We’ll offer an easy, restful experience designed to help you pause, breathe, and be restored. Enjoy quiet reflection spaces, peaceful places to sit and pray, opportunities to walk and reflect, and unhurried moments simply to be. The day also provides space to connect with fellow clergy who understand the unique joys and challenges of ministry, fostering meaningful conversation, encouragement, and community.
Whether you spend time in solitude, prayer, reflection, or connection, the day is yours to receive the rest and renewal you need. Leave feeling refreshed, encouraged, and ready to return to your faith community with renewed energy, deeper support, and a restored spirit.

What Awaits You
Throughout the day, you'll find a variety of spaces and experiences designed to support rest, reflection, and renewal. Settle into the sunroom, where natural light pours through the windows and creates a peaceful place to pause and breathe. Relax by the pool, listening to the gentle sounds of water and enjoying moments of quiet restoration. Wander through the backyard garden, where flowering plants, lush greenery, and fruit trees offer a beautiful reminder of growth, abundance, and God's provision. The beauty of the property invites you to slow down, notice the details, and reconnect with a sense of wonder and gratitude.
Quiet corners throughout the grounds provide space for journaling, prayer, reading, or simple reflection. Whether you find yourself sitting on the porch, admiring a bloom, or resting with a cup of coffee while taking in the scenery, you'll discover opportunities to savor beauty, embrace stillness, and nourish your spirit. Every space has been thoughtfully designed to offer a gentle respite from the demands of ministry and create room for peace, renewal, and restoration.
