Encounter Renewal experiences
Is your soul craving some time with God away from your distractions and trappings?
Encounter Renewal is a weekend of camping, fellowship, and an intentional pursuit of the Lord.
April 25-27, 2025
What is Encounter?
Encounter Renewal Retreat is a camping experience in which participants will enjoy beautiful wilderness, gourmet camp food, fun fellowship, and a weekend consecrated to pursuing the Lord. You will enjoy self-guided opportunities of discussion, extended prayer, meditation, worship, hikes, and more. Spend an entire weekend uninterrupted opening your heart to the Lord's direction!
You bring to Encounter what is on your heart. A career decision? A better marriage? A discipline to develop? Destructive thoughts to release? You’ll have the opportunity to simply be in God's presence and let Him speak to you, guide you, and renew you.
NEW LOCATION! - Beautiful Robbers Cave State Park, near Wilberton, OK. Here's a map. This park offers a ton of activities and avenues to encounter the Lord! We will camp by the river at Deep Ford campground.
Not into camping? No problem! Stay in the nearby beautiful lodge or a newly-renovated cabin! Make your own lodge/cabin reservations here.

"...the perfect balance of individual, small group, and whole group activities and discussion. It was so well planned and thought-out, but also left room for Holy Spirit to change up our plans and surprise us in the best ways. Eric and Sarah are the most gracious leaders and hosts. I highly recommend this retreat. You will experience His presence." - Julie

"Encounter provided a way to be found, a way to escape from the busy noise of the world. Through Encounter, I was able to receive the deepest touch of the Holy Spirit like I never have before." - Jaime

"I like the program we follow, not tight at all but very effective when we are asked to break down some passages. It pushes us to meditate on His Word and is a great opportunity to learn to hear from God." - Jehu

“I had several spiritual and personal break-throughs at my retreat with Solace last weekend, and it couldn’t have come at a better time... The beauty of Solace is that it is structured just enough to provide spiritual focus, but provides enough flexibility and choice to allow you to respond to the Holy Spirit. If you’re on the fence, show up. You won’t regret it.” - Brian
