Azure Hills Church Retreat
October 14 -16, 2022
About
“Jesus said to them, ‘Come away with me. Let us go alone to a quiet place and rest for a while.” (Mark 6:31 a) In the hustle and bustle, Jesus invites us to rest. What a journey we’ve been on through this pandemic. Our fall church retreat planned for October 14-16, 2022, in beautiful Thousand Pines, is an opportunity to rest and connect with each other and our God. We’ll enjoy prayer, worship, delicious meals, fun activities, and opportunities for quiet time alone or with your families. We hope you join us! It will be an unforgettable weekend!
Directions
Lodging
In addition to beautiful spaces that overlook the national forest and Mount Baldy, there are several lodging options available. Our theme for our church retreat this year is “Together.” It’s a time for us to connect with each other and God through worship and the beauty of nature. Please find a family you would like to room with as there are no private lodging options available.
