2025 Family Retreat

We’re excited to invite you to our 2025 JRC Whole Church Retreat at Pine Valley Bible Conference Center from June 27-29! This retreat is for the entire family and includes a separate children’s program, so kids can have a fun and engaging experience while parents and older students enjoy their own time of growth and connection.


This year’s theme is "Just Jesus," and our goal is to create a space where you can refresh, grow, and deepen your relationship with Him. With great amenities and plenty of opportunities for families to relax, connect, and build community, this retreat is a chance to step away from the busyness of life and be encouraged in your faith.

Dates: June 27-29 (Friday - Sunday)
