To provide a sacred space set apart for individuals and groups to tend to their inner life and experience the love and presence of God. This includes opportunities for reflection, prayer, and discernment to allow participants to grow and respond to the Spirit's loving invitation into their lives. Our programs are rooted in the Christian contemplative tradition, yet open to, and draw from, other forms of faith and secular study. Whether you are a member of a spiritual tradition or a seeker, you are welcome at Five Oak Retreat Center.

Here's what people have to say:

"I left feeling closer to God than I have in a long, long time. Setting aside a day to meditate, reflect, pray and share opened up the door for me to truly focus on why I was keeping God at arms length. I've been putting up roadblocks for quite some time now. A day strictly set aside for reflection and soul searching allowed me to pause and a take a deep dive into my thoughts, fears, anger. In doing so, I actually started realizing what I was subconsciously doing. I was "Enlightened" if you will. I left feeling full of joy and hope. I know I still have work to do but this retreat served as a catalyst for me to finding my way back to God. I sincerely thank you all from the bottom of my heart!"
