"It’s a great event for life transitions, whether finishing school, starting ministry, or just switching gears. For the level of education we’re getting, like learning from Biblical scholars, combined with a bit of camp experience, it’s worth the cost; a high-value experience!”
-Christina
“The combination of teaching that stimulates the mind, worship that touches the heart, and fellowship that nourishes the soul has been life-changing, like a three-legged stool supporting your whole being."
-Gerald & Kathy
“As a pastor, you look for opportunities to be refreshed, to be renewed, to get out of the ‘same old, same old’. Windward has provided exactly that, a place to grow, both spiritually and intellectually. It’s a great opportunity to come before the Lord and let Him examine you as you examine His Word.”
-Clifford
Keynote Speaker: Waiting on Confirmation
