Are you curious about the idea of a sabbath retreat, but you don’t know what to expect? If so, you’re not alone. 

Here’s a video that should help to fill in the blanks:

Back by popular demand is our fifth annual “Embrace the Sabbath” Retreat! Journey north this September 15-22 to enjoy an entire week of restorative peace in Alaska as you listen for the whispers of God. This retreat provides an undistracted opportunity to attend to the “wellspring of life” offered by Jesus. 

Spend time connecting with our welcoming team of ministers, therapists, and doctors who have collaborated to provide an experience that promises rest, refreshment, and renewal. Each retreat leader will be available throughout the week, offering their unique skills to enhance your retreat experience.

September 2025 retreat leaders:

  • Dr. Jennifer Konzen: sex therapist and marriage counseling
  • Dr. Tracy Jones: family counseling, spiritual director, contemplative practices
  • Dr. Sean St. Jean: trauma therapist, burnout specialist and relationship counseling
  • Diana Steer: presencing, spiritual direction, life coach and retreat coordinator

During your time with us, you will practice the spiritual discipline(s) of your choice, and soak in the stunning beauty of God’s creation. You can participate in all activities, such as communal dinners and field trips to Talkeetna and Denali. Or you can participate in a few things, using this time to connect in solitude with your Creator.

This retreat was originally conceived in response to our growing knowledge and respect for “soul care,” pastoral care, and spiritual formation. Sadly, many disciples have waited too long to tend to the legitimate needs of their souls and have suffered the effects of spiritual burnout. Let’s reclaim our God-given birthright and drink deeply from the well of living water that Jesus promises.

To protect the integrity of each retreat experience, we have strictly limited the number of available spaces. So if you hear the Spirit calling you, please visit our registration page for more details or email [email protected].
