WinShape Retreat

WinShape Retreat WinShape Retreat is all about creating a caring, safe place for growth and transformation. More than ever, we need to be encouraged to slow down.

WinShape Retreat is the fulfillment of a vision to create a Christian pastoral environment that ministers to the physical, spiritual, and emotional needs of people in the world today. We need a place to get away, to process, or to unwind. WinShape Retreat is one of few remaining places completely free of commercial influence and media clutter. It’s an ideal place to connect with a spouse, your tea

m, or with God. Because sometimes you have to retreat before you can advance again. Come join us at WinShape Retreat and depart from the hurriedness of everyday life, just for a few days. We’ll give you a chance to pull back, unplug and recharge and provide the beautiful, natural setting for you to connect with your spouse, teammates or God. Since we are located in the middle of a breathtaking 26,000 acre wildlife preserve and just a short drive from Atlanta, Birmingham and Chattanooga, it is easy to do. We invite you to come enjoy our vast activities, a custom experiential program, or inspiring moments of solitude. We look forward to helping you…

The WinShape College Program began in 1984, our first ministry, created to develop young leaders for future success. (Or as our founder S. Truett Cathy said it, to “shape winners,” hence the name WinShape.)
 
Today, we’re still firmly rooted in Truett’s original intent and purpose. We want all of our College Program students to discover their God-given identity and flourish in it. As John 15 reminds us, we can only truly grow when we’re connected to Christ.

Follow along with our devotion, led by Jeremy Marshall, Director of the WinShape College Program, and join us in praying for God to produce fruit in all our lives as we root our identity in Him.

As National Foster Care Month wraps up, we honor the caseworkers, communities, caregivers and advocates dedicated to serving vulnerable children and families.

The realities of foster care can feel overwhelming, but Psalm 10 reminds us that God is faithful. And He’s inviting us into His story of redemption.  

At WinShape Homes, we partner with churches and families to provide Christ-centered foster care. Follow along with our devotion, led by Callie Priest, Director of Strategic Partnerships at WinShape Homes, and join us in prayer.

To hear how God at work and how you can be a part, check out the WinShape Homes podcast at the link in our bio.

Camp begins soon! 🏕️ Next week, we’ll welcome nearly 800 Summer Staff on our Mt. Berry campus for Staff Training. Then, we’ll host the Summer of a Lifetime for happy campers with Overnight Camp sessions beginning on May 31, and Camps for Communities kicking off on June 1.
 
Please pray for God to draw campers to Himself and get great glory this summer. Ask God to protect staff, campers and volunteers in the busy weeks of camp. 🙏

We hosted over 150 of our summer staff leaders at WinShape Retreat for Leadership Weekend!

Leadership Weekend is a training event for the leadership team of WinShape Camps to prepare summer staffers for their roles, connect with teammates, and align on the upcoming camp season’s theme.

They worship together, attend practical training, build team chemistry — all designed to equip leaders to serve their fellow teammates and campers with excellence.

This is just a small glimpse of what’s to come this summer on our campus and all over the country!

Psst! Camps still has a few summer staff roles open, know a college student who needs to be a part of something like this? Send them to workatwinshape.org! 👀🤝🏔️

God is writing an eternal story of redemption and restoration, and we are so grateful He has invited us to be part of that story!  

In 2025, we saw families connect, couples recommit, leaders launch and students embrace the unexpected. Across all of our ministries, we heard stories of God’s faithfulness.  

For more than 40 years, we’ve been committed to creating experiences where God can transform lives, and as you read about all that God has done in and through WinShape this year, we hope that you’re inspired to join in and see how He writes the next chapter.
