Welcome to our Annual Church Retreat!
A highlight of our church family since 2006. If you've never before come - plan on coming this year. Good friends, good food, Jesus. What else do you need?
And a huge, special welcome to those new to our church or those who have never attended before. It is an instant way to dive into the deep end of our broader simplechurch family.
Schedule and Details
Retreat details and camp schedule will be posted below.
Retreat Costs & Payment

Payments may be made by etransfer to donations@simplechurches.ca (Please include in the memo "Retreat Payment" and your last name). Or you may also bring cash or cheque with you to the retreat.
Accommodations
The retreat is “family style, " meaning we keep family units together in the same rooms. However, there are two types of lodging that the camp provides.
- Cottages have an upstairs and downstairs with a shared bath and kitchenette. We put two families in these (one upstairs and one downstairs).
- Lodge - the lodges are larger and have 6 individual rooms (5 beds/room) with a shared lounge and washroom area.

We will let you know a few days before the camp your lodge assignment.
What Can You Expect?
Our retreat is always a low-key time. We don't overplan, so there is lots of time to rest and enjoy each other's company. This is the key point... build friendships and community.
The Teacher
This year's teacher will be.... Andy Lambkin!
The theme?
This fall, Simple Churches celebrates its 20th Anniversary! Andy has chosen "20" as the theme, celebrating God's faithfulness to our churches while reflecting on stories in Scripture where the number 20 appears.
It should be made for wonderful sessions of combined testimony, reflection and Scripture.
