Guests may also arrive one day early on Thursday, October 1, for an additional $40. This optional early arrival includes time to rest, unplug, fellowship, and worship before the retreat officially begins. Meals are not provided Thursday or Friday before supper, so please plan accordingly.
Throughout the weekend, guests can enjoy archery, the gun and skeet range, an escape room, fishing, boating, hiking trails, frisbee golf, games, great food, and plenty of time to connect with others.

October 16 through October 18, 2026
Yellow Birch Lodge
Eagle River, WisconsinThis fall, we are getting away together for a weekend at beautiful Yellow Birch Lodge in Eagle River, Wisconsin.
Our theme this year is Falling Deeper.
Life can get busy, loud, and full very quickly. This weekend is an opportunity to step away from some of that noise and intentionally seek the Lord. Our prayer is that we would not simply know more about Him, but that we would grow deeper in our relationship with Him.
Psalm 63:1
"O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you."
Throughout the weekend we will spend time together in God's Word, worship, prayer, teaching, testimonies, and fellowship. We are also making plenty of room in the weekend to rest, enjoy one another, and take in the beautiful place God has given us to gather.
Come ready to slow down. Come ready to seek Him. Come ready to Fall Deeper.

WILL RESTART FIRST WEEK OF SEPTEMBER! Happy Summer!
Elevate & Embrace is a space for women to gather in truth, love, and sisterhood. It’s an evening set apart for encouragement, growth, and real connection—where we come as we are and let the Lord meet us there.
We laugh… we cry… we pray… and we get honest about the highs and lows of life, faith, motherhood, marriage, and everything in between. Whether it’s diving into scripture, sharing what God is doing in our hearts, or simply sitting in the stillness together… this space is for being built up and reminded we’re not alone.
We come to elevate our minds and hearts to things above… and to embrace the process of becoming more like Jesus together.
Kids are welcome to come and play with others while we meet… we’ve got the space and we love the joy they bring!

IS GENESIS HISTORY? Series
Join us Thursdays at 6:00 PM at the Koivunen’s house!
From the creator of The Truth Project, Dr. Del Tackett leads this powerful series exploring the opening chapters of Genesis as real history. Together we’ll look at creation, the flood, Adam and Eve, and how these events connect to the rest of God’s Word. With insights from leading scientists and scholars, the series helps us see how Scripture and science fit together and strengthens our confidence in the authority of the Bible. Come ready for teaching, discussion, and encouragement as we grow in a deeper understanding of God’s truth.
