The Chalet Retreat Ministries — Roan Mountain, Tennessee
Hosting God's Presence.
Equipping His People.
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”
— Matthew 11:28–29
A sanctuary in the mountains of East Tennessee where God’s presence dwells, weary leaders find rest, marriages are made strong, and believers are equipped to be the church.
You weren’t meant
to carry this alone.
The current religious system is leaving people exhausted. Pastors burn out with no one to care for them. Couples drift apart. Believers hunger for church that feels like family.
We exist to host the presence of God and invite others in—because a community encountering Him is the only thing that can sustain the long work of ministry, marriage, and church.
Strong leaders need strong marriages to build strong ministries.
Three Works.
One Mission.
Rest / Covenant / Church
Rest for the Weary
The Chalet Retreat
Sanctuary for pastors, missionaries, and ministry leaders running on empty. No agenda. No hustle. Just space to breathe, pray, and be still.
Strength for the Covenant
Unified Life
A 12-week marriage discipleship journey rooted in Ephesians 5. Helping couples break the disconnect cycle and build a unified life under God.
A Return to the Table
Humble Church
Training and resources for planting home fellowships. Participatory, meal-based, and built around the table—not the stage.
“A rested leader with a strong marriage is equipped to build a healthy, biblical church.
The Chalet is where all three converge.”
