RENEWAL IN THE WILDERNESS®
offers spiritual retreats in nature mostly for adults, but with a special parent-child canoe trip! We take people like you, from all faith traditions, out of normal environments for a week (or weekend) of wilderness sojourning for a chance to spend time with God in ways that have been proven for at least 4,000 years.

TRIPS, WORKSHOPS
If you would like to reconnect with God in the same way our ancestors found so effective, sign up for our next canoe trip or kayak trip. Custom trips for your group also available.
