Our First Ever Retreat

Our first retreat was our test run. But what happened in the mountains of Mount Cardigan helped shape the DNA of every retreat that followed. We traveled deep into the rolling hills of New Hampshire to disconnect from the noise of the modern world and reconnect with the presence of God. No cellphone service. No WiFi. No bathrooms, showers, or electricity. Just the mountains, the silence, and the pursuit of something real.

 

Every part of the retreat was intentionally designed to pull us away from comfort and closer to spiritual awareness. We crafted anointing oil from the ancient recipe given to Moses. We built stone altars inspired by the faith of Abraham. We practiced breathwork and grounding sessions beneath the open sky, learning to slow down, meditate, and become fully present in God’s creation.

 

Then came the ultimate challenge. A six mile round trip hike up Mount Cardigan, scheduled directly in the middle of our no food, no liquids fast. Exhausting. Humbling. Spiritual. And somehow, in the middle of weakness, we encountered strength that did not come from ourselves.

 

This retreat changed us. And now, you can relive the journey through the photos and videos below.
