Mission

To create a place where people can come to reconnect - whether it's with God, their teammates, or their families. The goal is to impact generations, through all age groups and backgrounds. With current facilities, the Foundation has already made a tremendous impact and sees great value in adding to the existing structures to accommodate more groups year round. On 90 acres of loblolly pines and sprawling oaks, the Foundation has created a haven, believing in a strong sense of place, and how mood and attitude can be influenced by surroundings. The Foundation has built outstanding facilities with an emphasis on aesthetic and quality design built to last. Surrounding the Foundation are vineyards, gardens, and open spaces to facilitate interaction with nature and spark awe in those who walk onto the property.
