cottage retreats






STEP AWAY AND
BREATHE AGAIN.




Pastors and ministry leaders spend their lives making room for others. Grace Valley's
cottages make room for you.  We offer space to rest, listen, prepare, and reconnect with God and the people you love.




For pastors, ministry leaders + spouses.









YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT TO GET AWAY.


The pace and weight of ministry can make it difficult to pay attention to what is happening within us and to notice what God is doing

around us.  A retreat at one of our cottages creates room to slow down before exhaustion becomes burnout or stress becomes crisis.



Choose the kind of space you need in this season.



01.

SILENCE + SOLITUDE


Step away from noise, hurry, and responsibility. Rest, pray, and attend to what God may be inviting you to notice.







2 Nights Recommended



02.

SERMON WRITING


Give a sermon series, teaching plan, or important message focused attention without the interruption of ordinary ministry life.






1-2 Nights Recommended


 

03.

PASTOR + SPOUSE


Share unhurried time together without an

agenda to complete, people to care for,

or demands waiting in the next room.






2 Nights Recommended
