Heart’s Rest is based on a commitment to relationship.  To foster relationships within our community, and to support renewal, change, and creative vision in the broader area, we sponsor a variety of open retreats and workshops throughout the course of the year.  Some of these are conducted by Heart’s Rest staff; others are led by visiting teachers.

We also offer private retreats for groups and individuals.  These are pre-arranged to suit the needs of the participants.  The range of private retreats has included persons on sabbatical, writers spending a week to concentrate on a draft, ministers on private guided retreat, church groups on mission trips, and planning meetings for society boards.
