Open for Reservations!!!

Praise God!  We are now ready to take reservations for the retreat, so if you have a child with autism, let us know when you'd like to come, beginning the first week of June and we'll get you on the calendar.  

We only have one cabin completed at this point, so reservations will be on a first come, first serve basis for our one beautiful little two-bedroom cabin.  We are requesting a donation of $30.00 per night for a stay in the cabin.  It has a full kitchen, including refrigerator, stove, microwave, toaster, coffee-maker, and a full size washer and dryer.  There's an adorable living room and dining area, and a front porch complete with a relaxing porch swing and even a ceiling fan to make sitting out there more enjoyable. 

The playground includes a swingset, slide, fort, rock climbing wall, a large sandbox and a hammock.  We're still adding to the playground, and have many great ideas to make it really fun, but it all takes money, so we're in a holding pattern at the moment.  

The opening of this cabin is just the first step in the vision for Elijah's Retreat.  Please continue to lift us up in your prayers as we move on to phase 2.  We have great dreams for Elijah's Retreat.  Seeing God bring this portion to reality only gives us greater faith that He will provide for the rest.  

To make a reservation, please email us at info@elijahsretreat.com or call us at 903-589-0145.  

God bless you!  Thank you for your support of this ministry!

I am amazed and awed at the Retreat and cannot wait to schedule our family a time to come and experience such an amazing place. My son Zachary is 11 and is autistic. The only successful family vacation we have is the beach every summer but that is too far to do more than once a year. I am so pleased that you are not far from Shreveport, LA. Thank you, Melissa Mainiero
