Woodcrest Retreat is committed to providing excellent programming for guests of all ages. The vision is to see lives impacted for Christ through fellowship and the beauty of God’s creation. Woodcrest has a huge reservoir of resources that enable us to offer a variety of programs throughout the year including events for women, parent/child, teens, families, senior citizens, homeschool families, school groups, and youth.
Additionally, Woodcrest offers a number of fundraising events throughout the year that provide opportunity for folks to gather together for fun and fellowship, while also supporting the ministry of Woodcrest’s summer camps.
