This Memorial Day, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.
As we gather with family and friends, may we never forget the sacrifices made to protect the freedoms we enjoy. We are deeply grateful for those who laid down their lives for others.
“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” John 15:13

Two weeks ago today, The Ravines Retreat Center gathered for our annual Celebration Banquet — a special evening honoring God’s faithfulness in restoring, strengthening, and encouraging hurting marriages for the past 17 years. During that time, we have been blessed to walk alongside more than 800 couples on their journey toward healing and hope.

The banquet was filled with gratitude, joy, heartfelt testimonies, meaningful fellowship, and delicious food, all centered around supporting couples through scholarship funding and celebrating the countless ways God has worked through this ministry.

We are incredibly thankful for everyone who attended, gave, served, volunteered, and supported this special event, including our wonderful guest speakers and amazing volunteers who helped make the evening possible.

By God’s grace, over $140,000 was raised! To Him alone be all the glory!

Valentine’s Day was yesterday.
The flowers were sweet… but the distance is still there.
Don’t ignore it.
Choose to reconnect.

"What a beautiful peaceful environment to reconnect with each other and God - looking out the expansive windows to view His amazing creation. The Ravines is a RARE GIFT! Thank you for this tremendous marriage resource -- one desperately needed in this challenging world of innumerable distractions.

Happy Thanksgiving from The Ravines Retreat Center!
Today we’re thankful for our staff, counselors, and volunteers. We are extremely grateful for all the couples God brings through our doors, for every story of healing, and for the hope Christ offers to marriages and families.
