I invite you to join me for a meaningful, intimate, retreat-style weekend as we explore God’s beautiful pattern for purity, relationships, and marriage!

Our dorm rooms sleep four to a room with bunk beds, open shelving, and closet space — and a few touches that we hope will make the space warm and inviting during the weekend. Bathrooms are connected to each dorm room and many are shared with an adjoining suite. We hope you’ll enjoy your visit with us!

If this is not a convenient arrangement for your group, we encourage you to consider staying off-campus in a nearby hotel or other form of lodging. We look forward to having your group at this event!
