The retreat is at Shepherd’s Pasture in Jefferson, Texas. The retreat center is settled in nature which provides both a beautiful and calm atmosphere! The center has plenty of full and queen size beds, and also bunk beds to sleep everyone. All beds have a regular mattress and linens, including handmade quits. Some of the buildings will provide for more accessibility for those with trouble walking or getting in and out of showers. Be sure to notify us if you need this accommodation.
