Chasing Grace: Crowned in Community

September 11 to 13, 2026

Step away from the noise of everyday life and embark on a personal journey toward emotional and spiritual freedom. Through guided sessions, reflective exercises, and community connection, attendees will explore how God designed the heart, mind, and body to experience peace, wholeness, and true freedom in Him through Christ.

Set in the serene landscape of Mann’s Choice, PA, the historic Harrison House at White Sulfur Springs offers a peaceful retreat space with comfortable lodging and thoughtfully prepared meals. Each guest will enjoy cozy accommodations and nourishing, home-cooked meals served buffet-style, with options to accommodate dietary needs. Whether finding rest in the quiet of the retreat center, engaging in conversations around the table, or spending moments of solitude with the Lord, participants will be met with warm hospitality and an environment designed for renewal.

Over the course of the weekend, expect a balance of teaching, worship, hands-on exercises, and rest. From Friday’s powerful storytelling session to Saturday’s deep dive into the connection between faith and emotions, attendees will be equipped with biblical truths and evidence-based practices to move toward healing. Interactive workshops, creative reflection activities, and embracing the freedom of surrendering fully to God are integral parts of this transformative experience.

What is it?

Chasing Grace is a Christ-centered women’s retreat focused on spiritual renewal, biblical teaching, and meaningful community. Returning in September 2026, the retreat will be grounded in Paul’s letter to the church at Ephesus (the Book of Ephesians). Together, we will explore identity, belonging, and grace through Scripture, reflection, and shared experiences.

Who is it for?

This retreat is for women of all ages and life stages who desire to grow in their faith and connect with other women in an authentic, welcoming environment. It is a cross-church gathering that brings together women from many local churches rather than from a single congregation. No Bible study background is required and attending alone or with a friend is equally encouraged.

Let's Connect

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out and connect to get those questions in a timely manner. We also have needs-based scholarships available.

What will you experience?

You will experience biblically grounded teaching from Ephesians, opportunities for personal and group reflection, meaningful conversation, and time to rest in God’s presence. Scripture, storytelling, and creative practices are woven together to encourage spiritual growth and deeper connection.
