The Springs:  A Place to Return To

Mission...

To provide welcoming spaces for those in ministry to encounter the healing love and presence of God in order to serve with greater authenticity.

       Guided by three core values:
       1 - God Led
       2 - Guest Centered
       3 - Creation Sensitive

Why is this vital...

The noise and busyness of daily life demands that we come away with Jesus to keep company with Him, taking time to enter His rest, to hear His Words and to enjoy His World.  Without rest we so easily lose our way, our health, our hope.

Reading Room - We have created a new and welcoming space for our guests at The Springs, located in the Towner home.  This comfortable and quiet environment offers a pleasant place to read, write or pray without interruptions.  The Reading Room is available in the afternoons by appointment and can be set up during the reservations process with Amy.

Kroger Neighborhood Rewards Program:
(For Tri-State Residents only)

Register your Kroger Plus card to support The Springs!  This past year we received over $1000 from Kroger as a result of your efforts!

In order to continue benefitting from this generous program, participants must annually renew their enrollment by registering their Kroger Plus Card with the designation of a charity of their choice. Kroger then donates a portion of their regional non-profit support to the Springs base on the amount of Kroger Plus sales recorded.   The 2013-2014 Kroger Community Rewards Program begins May 1, 2013 and enrollment officially opened April 1, 2013.

All supporters who registered prior to April 1, 2013 must re-enroll online to continue supporting The Springs by April 30, 2013. 

Please note that for the 2013-2014 program year, Kroger will donate $4,000,000 for the Kroger Community Rewards program in the Tri-State area.  Therefore, for each quarter of the program year, $1,000,000 will be donated to participating organizations based on total sales generated by the supporters. 

Process...

We achieve this by providing four fully equipped
two-bedroom cabins that are set up to sleep 5-6.  Whether you come alone, as a family or as a group, you are invited to make yourselves at home for a day, a night or more, in the quiet spaces of this countryside retreat.    

The time is yours to plan and use as desired, with respect for others who may also be on retreat.   You may choose to explore the sprawling 150 acres, fish in the lake, read a book, nap in your cabin, or sit by a warm fire. Bring your Bible, your journal, art supplies, fishing pole, iPod, and/or whatever it is that enables you to connect with the heart of God.

The Springs is a registered 501c3.
