The Sanctuary

42 Acres of refuge to seek the Lord our God. Sojourners, stewarding what the Lord has provided

A place to Relax be still and take in the peace and quiet. Set aside the noise and distraction of the world to practice listening prayer. Experience God in a real tangible way!

Trails

There are over 5 miles of walking trails featuring a wet weather creek with a rock bridge crossing for your enjoyment. There is also a curated prayer walk. Trail map on AllTrails

New Perspective Tree Platform

An 8 foot by 16 foot platform nestled just inside the forest in 2 red oak trees. At eye level you’ll be looking out at 22 feet high above ground level. There is a 2 stage bridge to access the platform. Great for enjoying some quiet time at any time of day. Our favorite time is in the morning when the sun is coming up and shining on the forest and also when the sun is setting.

Prayer Shelter

Inspired by Luke 6:12 “Now it came to pass in those days that Jesus went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.” Situated in the back corner of the property for maximum quiet and solitude. A place to seek God alone or with a small group.
