Retreats & Events

Both Camp Chrysalis and Ebert Ranch Camp are open for weekend retreats year round. In the non-summer months, both sites are also available for weekday retreats. To learn more about what each site offers, see the housing, meeting, dining and special options given on the Chrysalis and Ebert Ranch webpages.

Cross Trails Ministry offers several types of retreats:

Programmed Retreats : Programmed retreats are planned and led by Cross Trails Ministry staff. All you have to do is sign up and come! Come on your own, with your family or with a group. One low price includes all programming, housing and meals. Contact our office or download a registration form to register for a programmed retreat.

Rental Retreats: Groups can come for retreats at Chrysalis or Ebert Ranch any time of year. We’ll provide meals and as much help as you’d like in planning your retreat! Contact our office to reserve your retreat dates.

Pre-Planned Rental Retreats: Select your retreat dates and then choose the retreat that best meets your group’s needs from a set of completely pre-planned retreats. Contact our office to reserve your retreat dates.

Volunteer Retreats: Set up a time to bring a group to Chrysalis or Ebert Ranch and complete a project together. If you can commit to a minimum of 8 hours of work time over the course of the weekend, your retreat cost is very minimal. Skilled and unskilled groups are welcome, and funding is often available through Thrivent. Contact our office to arrange your retreat.

Ropes Challenge Course Day or Weekend Retreats: The Ebert Ranch Ropes Challenge Course is available for day or weekend use. Allow a minimum of 6 hours for both high and low ropes. These are reserved as rental retreats, so contact our office to arrange your Ropes Challenge Course experience.
