The Forest Chapel

The Institute facilities can be reserved by a group providing its own program. The Institute staff is also available to provide presentations of a wide range of themes.
The retreats offered by the Institute use various models and teaching methods that were developed over a number of years. They have been tested and refined in our work with individuals, couples, and organizations. The design provides profound opportunities for participants to understand themselves and their relationships in the realms of spiritual growth, healing and improved well-being both personally and professionally.

Spiritual Retreats    These retreats are Journeys in Self Discovery, leading to a better knowledge of ourselves and of God. They help us learn to hear the voice of God in our lives and become more centered in Christ. The focus is on healing, growth, and a life with greater joy, hope and love.

Healing Retreats    These retreats focus on healing the body, mind, emotions and spirit.  They present instruction based on psychology, medicine, and the gospel message, and offer the opportunity to heal in all aspects of our humanity.

Life Skills Retreats    To have strong relationships, grow professionally, and develop our full potential, we need critical life skills. These retreats introduce new concepts and teach the participants ways to find mastery and harmony that will bring noticeable change and happiness.
