The Mission
Help provide care and renewal experiences to ministry leaders in our community.
Our Heart
Pastors often spend their lives carrying the burdens of others, yet many carry the weight of ministry alone.
Grace Valley exists to create spaces where leaders can slow down, reconnect with God, experience meaningful renewal, and cultivate sustainable rhythms for life and ministry.
Through spiritual direction, retreats, and partnerships with local churches, we help pastors and ministry leaders pursue greater health, deeper relationships, and lasting renewal.
We cultivate space for rest, providing solitude retreats and marriage getaways at our cottages.
We connect pastors and leaders to peer-led groups throughout Atlanta while providing ongoing care through counselors and spiritual directors.
We create guided experiences that restore relational, physical and spiritual health so leaders can last for the long haul.

A Community Where
Pastors Are Known
and Not Alone
Pastors pour into the lives of so many while often carrying the weight of ministry alone. They faithfully fulfill the command to 'carry one another's burdens' (Galatians 6:2), yet few have anyone to turn to with their own.
Our heart is to create space for pastors and ministry leaders can slow down, rest and enjoy God's good gifts in a community that knows the weight they are carrying.
When leaders are renewed, families are strengthened, ministries flourish and churches grow.
