Women’s Retreat
at Covenant Park Bible Camp
More info
Expect a meaningful and refreshing weekend designed to help you rediscover and firmly take hold of your identity in Christ. Through four engaging sessions rooted in Philippians 3, you’ll reflect on the roles and labels you carry, release the weight of past mistakes, and learn to focus forward on who God says you are—redeemed, chosen, and His. Alongside teaching, you’ll have opportunities to grow through prayer, creative activities, service projects, and intentional community, all while enjoying rest, recreation, and connection. Whether you come feeling confident or searching, this retreat is an invitation to “press on” and walk away grounded in your true identity as a child of God.
More details are available on the registration page below.

Men’s Retreat
at Adventurous Christians
More info
Adventurous Christians is a Covenant ministry located on Bow Lake off the Gunflint Trail. This retreat is a chance for the men of Salem, their sons, and their friends to get away from the hustle and bustle of life and spend a weekend in the rustic outdoors.
The retreat starts with dinner on Friday and runs through Sunday afternoon. We will have some optional activities planned, but you are free to enjoy the weekend however you prefer. There are numerous local lakes, trails, the lodge, and a sauna. The camp offers canoes for use and transportation to area trails and lakes.
Children are welcome and encouraged, as this is a great chance to do some father/son bonding!
If you are interested in attending, please sign up at your earliest convenience as space is limited. Sign up here or contact Alan Van Loon directly. Cost is $140 per person for the weekend, which covers all meals and lodging, paid directly to Adventurous Christians. Cost is $10 less if you will not be eating Friday dinner at the camp.
