Elijah's Retreat Set to Open Spring 2009

Elijah’s Retreat will at last open its doors for guests this Spring! We will be giving the first cabin its final touches over the winter, as well as completing the playground and additional fencing around the property. Spring is all about new life and new beginnings. We can’t imagine a more perfect time for our grand opening.

Researching autism on the internet this morning I came across a staggering statistic. The divorce rate for couples who have a child with autism is now over 80%! Life is hard for these families – every day – and marriages are falling apart in the midst of the stress, fatigue and turmoil.

That is why we are so passionate about what we are doing here at Elijah’s Retreat. These families desperately need support. We want Elijah’s Retreat to be a sanctuary, a refuge for these precious folks for many years to come.
