Bethlehem Centre is a place of peace and beauty. Our group, Faith and Sharing, has been coming here every summer since 1989.

We always find a welcoming space to form community, to spend time with God and in nature. This year the pandemic has made everything different. But still we came. It was a unique and life-changing time.

The staff provided professional services, feeding us well, and keeping the spaces clean, so we felt safe and able to relax and enjoy the gifts of this place. We are so grateful to have this haven to come to and more so in these uncertain challenging times.

We go home refreshed, grounded and more whole.

I spent 3 days in a silent retreat at Bethlehem Retreat Centre.

This is a very unique and special place which already has everything there needs to be for a retreat.

I hope that it can be preserved for the use of all those that are interested in spiritual growth.

Bethlehem Retreat Centre was a haven of peace for me during the few days I spent there in February, 2010.

Having come from many busy weeks in cold and snowy Saskatoon, it was blessing-filled and soul-nurturing experience to bask in its beautiful setting near the lake and forest.

In addition to appreciating the quiet time for prayer and contemplation, I appreciated the warm hospitality. For me, the Bethlehem Retreat Centre was a taste of heaven.

My late husband, Lock Mawhinney and I have been going to retreats since the Center opened. We have attended all Faith and sharing retreats, in fact, 3 generations , my daughters and their children have attended these retreats.

What a Grace to attend a week long retreat with your children and grandchildren! The kids will not miss it, even if we are too tired and say we might not go, they protest!
