ALL-CHURCH RETREAT

A Weekend to Connect as a Church Family

Panoramic view of Vesper Point at Beersheba Springs Assembly, during a Christ UMC All-Church Retreat.

NEXT RETREAT DATE:

NOVEMBER 6 - 8, 2026

For over 20 years, Christ UMC has hosted an offsite All-Church Retreat. The event is designed to create a welcoming and casual setting where fellow congregants have the time and space to gather, share meals, relax and renew, pray, laugh, learn, sing, worship, nurture relationships, and make new connections.

Usually held approximately two hours east of Franklin, at Beersheba Springs United Methodist Assembly, the retreat includes a welcome bonfire with music and s’mores, multi-generational group and game time, theme-based activities, meals and snacks, Saturday night entertainment, and well-needed “downtime” to rest, enjoy nature, play games, shop, take a hike, read, or simply sit in a rocking chair and enjoy the company of others.

It’s our hope that those who attend the retreat leave the mountain relaxed and renewed.
