Space For God

April 17-19, 2026

Have a peaceful, joyous, God-filled weekend at Big Sandy Camp. Let us do the cooking and the dishes, while you recharge. All the while, remembering that you are loved, known, and cared for by our Heavenly Father!

Our prayer for this retreat is to give you space. Space to connect with friends. Space to breathe. Space to connect with God. Space to process with God. Space to just BE.

Optional activities include: Craft Corner, Painting, Tournaments, Board Games, Self-Manicures, Gym, Coffee Shop, Gift Shop, Bingo, & more!

Seminar Topics include a variety of tools and practices to help draw you closer to the heart of God.

Worship

Ava Hinson

A multi‑instrumentalist, videographer, and photographer, she brings creativity into everything she does. She loves reading, drinking fun drinks like coffee and chai, and any chance to come back to camp—especially since she served on summer staff in 2023. Married just over a year, Ava is grateful to be here and excited to lead worship for the retreat.

Speakers

Rhonda Wynegar

Her heart is for creating space for people to connect with God and take the time that our souls need to relate to our Father. She will be leading us through spiritual rhythms of releasing, meditating, surrendering and filling. She believes most of us don’t need another sermon but transformational time with Jesus! Bring your Bible and a journal and join us for a weekend of making space for God!
