Retreats at Okema are a special time set apart from the busyness of everyday life to focus on deepening your relationship with God. It’s a peaceful time—away from distractions—where you come together to pray, worship, study the Bible, and reflect. At our retreats, you stay in cabins with other retreaters, share delicious meals prepared for you, and enjoy a welcoming community of fellow believers who are also seeking rest and renewal. Whether you're new to the faith or have been walking with Christ for years, our retreats offer space for spiritual growth and meaningful connection with new and old friends.
This is more than just a weekend away—it’s an invitation to pause, unplug, and draw closer to God. With no need to worry about cooking or planning your day, you’re free to fully engage in times of teaching, prayer, worship, and quiet moments alone in nature. The goal is simple: to step away from the noise of the world and rediscover the voice of God. If you’re feeling spiritually dry, overwhelmed by life, or just hungry for more of God’s presence, this retreat is a time to be refreshed, renewed, and reminded that you’re not alone on the journey.
Okema typically runs a ladies' and men's retreat in June each year and a young adults' retreat in early September.
