“Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil.” Matthew 4:1

You are invited to enter the desert with Jesus. Like Jesus, all are called to step away from the noise of daily life and listen more closely to the voice of God. Through prayer, reflection, and silence this retreat is a time to let go of all that keeps you separated from the Lord, entering into silence and listening, and allowing God to meet you in your vulnerability and begin to transform you into a more trusting and faithful disciple of Christ.

Overnight retreat attendance is also an option. To register for Tuesday night and Wednesday, please follow this link

Our Past Retreat Experiences
What an experience! I loved spending time at Heritage. It’s a beautiful, peaceful environment. What an opportunity to leave the over-stressful life. I had a chance to grow closer to God. Plan to return!
Maria S.
5 Stars in all areas, especially hospitality. The staff is incredible and the grounds are peaceful and prayerful means to walk a little closer with God. When you leave you’re already thinking, when can I get back...
