“One of the spiritual disciplines that has nourished my soul, perhaps more than any other, is the discipline of Solitude. Having the opportunity to be alone with the Lord in a quiet place for a few days, or even a week, has done more to refresh my soul and love for the Lord, than anything else. The biggest barrier for making it happen in my own life is having a place to go to. I am so glad that there is Bethel Retreat House in India, because I know that this is going to help Christian workers in that part of the world to serve longer and more effectively, because we serve best when were are rested.”

“Christian workers give so much of themselves to others and they need a place to rest, spend time with God and recharge their spiritual strength. I thank God for the Bethel Retreat House and their vision to help full-time workers by providing such a place. I was personally blessed by spending a couple of days there. I commend the work of Bethel Retreat House and their commitment to bless those who are serving the Lord.

“After 28 years in Christian ministry, I can strongly affirm the crucial need of regular times of Sabbath, retreat and stillness before the Lord. But in our increasingly 24/7 oriented world, how and where do we get away to do that?
I highly commend to you the ministry of Bethel Retreat House in God, India. Bethel is a place where people can find a place of stillness, for a day, a week, or more. It is a place where you can be alone with God, or seek Him together with others from the Body of Christ for healing, instruction and growth.
Take advantage of places like Bethel Retreat House. I know I have and will continue to do so. You are in this Christian life not as in a sprint, but a marathon. Keep running!

“Bethel Retreat House” is a place where one can say it is a home away from home, where one can put their feet up on the table with a steaming cup of coffee or soup and let their hair down. Where they are not bound by rules and policies and can relax mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually. It is a place where one can be alone by themselves and also commune with God.
It is a place to shed your burdens and tiredness, renew the spirit, soul and body, go for long walks along the beach, look at the horizon, sunrise, sunset and come back refreshed.
Bethel Retreat House is a great blessing and answer to many of us who are in need for rest and quietness.”
