For over 20 years, Ron and Anne have provided respite, pastoral care, and therapeutic support for those living with mental health issues, as well as for health professionals, carers, and others carrying heavy responsibilities. Our heart is to offer a safe, peaceful space where each person is seen, heard, and encouraged.
We work with only a small number of guests at a time, allowing care to be personal and responsive to individual needs.
Prayer is at the heart of what we offer. We are released prayer ministers with VMTC NZ, and many guests have experienced profound healing and spiritual breakthrough through prayer ministry.
Testimonies of God’s healing work are shared on our website.
Each guest’s journey is unique, and we seek to meet people where they are right now — and help them find their way forward.
Prayer Ministry sessions are safe, confidential and non-judgemental. They operate through the power of forgiveness. These sessions are free of charge.
Retreats are planned with each person to be unique and particular to their needs and goals.
Some guests come during seasons of grief, transition, emotional struggle, or inner questioning. A listening ear, grounded in professional training and compassion, is often deeply healing.
Our approach is strength-based, focusing on the resources, resilience, and inner capacities each person already holds — and gently encouraging their growth toward wholeness and a stronger sense of self.
Depending on individual needs, sessions may draw from:
We believe that learning to understand our emotions, responses, and needs is key to living with balance, hope, purpose, and healthy relationships.
