Montreat Moment

Last weekend, we welcomed over 60 participants to The Manna Retreat, a new conference specifically for young adults! It was so wonderful to see the Holy Spirit moving in new ways as these conferees came hungry and left feeling nourished.

Thank You for Five Years of AmazonSmile Support!

Amazon announced that they will be discontinuing AmazonSmile on February 20, 2023. This means that for now, we hope you will keep shopping and supporting Montreat through AmazonSmile. Make sure to shop at smile.amazon.com and designate "Mountain Retreat Association" as your charity of choice. Since we began using AmazonSmile in 2017, we have received more than $1,200 through the program. We are so grateful to all of you who have supported us in this way over the years.
