This year’s theme: Shavuot (Pentecost)

Simcha, meaning “joy” in Hebrew, is a time for believers to celebrate the joy we have in Messiah. This retreat is designed for Jewish and Gentile believers in Jesus affiliated with Chosen People Ministries or Messianic congregations in the Southeast region of the United States. Perfectly suited for both individuals and families of all sizes, Simcha features musical worship, teaching, and workshops to deepen our walk with the Lord. Children’s programs will also be available. We know this weekend together in nature will provide much-needed refreshment!

“‘. . . all you people of the land take courage,’ declares the Lord, ‘and work; for I am with you,’ declares the Lord of hosts” (Haggai 2:4).

• We offer housing options for individuals, couples, double occupancy with separate beds, and family housing. All on-campus housing includes accommodations for two nights, meals for Friday dinner through Sunday lunch, all main sessions for all ages, and access to the retreat center grounds for activities and pool time.
• Off-campus guests for the full weekend get full access to the events and conference center activities. Meals include dinner on Friday through lunch on Sunday. Off-campus housing allows commuters from the local area to come and enjoy the weekend with us. If we are fully booked, this option allows guests to find housing accommodations at local hotels and still enjoy Simcha with us!

Registration will open the first week of March.
