Make an
impact today

When you choose to give, you become part of something bigger—something life-altering.

Why give?

  • Make Healing Possible

    Your gift helps cover retreat costs so individuals and couples in need can attend Christ-centered intensive retreats and receive care they wouldn’t be able to access on their own.

  • Support Christ-Centered Care

    You’re investing in world-class, trauma-informed clinical work that’s fully rooted in biblical truth—bringing together professional excellence and the hope of the gospel.

  • Be Part of Someone’s Journey

    Your generosity helps create a safe, immersive space where guests can rest, tell the truth about their story, and experience real movement toward healing and wholeness.

  • Create Lasting Impact

    When one life is restored, families, churches, and communities are impacted. Your gift doesn’t stop at one person—it continues in every relationship they touch.

  • Extend Oneness

    By funding scholarships, you help more people encounter the oneness with God, themselves, and others that Jesus prayed for—and carry that oneness back into their everyday lives.

  • Experience a Culture of Generosity

    Your yes encourages others to give, serve, and open doors for those in need of healing. Together, we can say “yes” to more stories and more lives renewed in Christ.


Why your gift matters

Many of the people who most need deep, trauma-informed, Christ-centered care are also carrying financial strain. Your gift removes a major barrier, opening the door for them to rest, tell the truth about their story, and receive skilled clinical and spiritual care in a safe environment.

You’re not just giving a retreat—you’re investing in a life changed, and in the families, churches, and communities they will impact when they return.

The Difference You Can Make

“It has been amazingly life-changing. (There is an) eternal, ongoing impact that we will take with us. It is for anybody who has been down a difficult road or who hasn’t. This is a place for everyone to come and experience healing.”

— Donna Gworek | Retreat Alum

“If somebody was to ask me what happens at One Bridge, there’s no way to explain it except for you to experience it”

— Dr. Cindy Haggerton | Retreat Alum
