Mission of the Heart Ridge Retreat and Cultural Center:To provide a place where people come together to look at all of reality with the hope of discovering what is good, true, and beautiful in God’s world.
Heart Ridge will offer presentations, panel discussions, workshops, exhibits, performances, weekend retreats, and summer vacation experiences as well as a place for individuals and groups to work, study, create, collaborate, pray or simply rest.
Following St. Paul who encouraged the first Christians to "Test everything; retain what is good,” at Heart Ridge we are interested in all aspects of life. We desire to facilitate encounters between people who look for and appreciate what builds up individuals, connects people, and is “worthy of praise” in the arts, sciences, politics, literature, history, philosophy, theology, the media, technology, education, and business. |
