Sky Ranch

This summer marks 70 years of Sky Ranch creating unforgettable experiences for youth and families! From our humble beginnings in 1955 with just 66 campers to now hosting over 68,000 guests annually, we continue to inspire, challenge, and encourage through fun, fellowship, and discipleship.

The Power of Rest & Renewal in a Busy World Why Retreats Matter for Ministry Leaders Ministry leaders spend so much time pouring into others—counseling, teaching, and shepherding their communities. But when was the last time you took time to be poured into? At Sky Ranch, we believe that spiritual renewal isn’t a luxury, it’s essential for effective ministry. A retreat isn’t just time away; it’s an opportunity to slow down, reconnect with God, and refocus your heart. Surrounded by nature and free from distractions, you can step away from the busyness of daily life and experience true restoration. With locations in Colorado, Oklahoma, and East Texas, Sky Ranch provides a peaceful setting for ministry leaders to breathe, reflect, and recharge: whether it’s quiet moments in prayer, meaningful conversations with fellow leaders, or simply soaking in the stillness of creation. At Sky Ranch, we are committed to excellence in every detail of your retreat experience, offering first-rate camp facilities and intentional staff ready to serve you. Let us help create your BEST EVENT YET—one that fills your cup and renews your spirit for the work ahead. If you or your ministry team could use a time of rest and reflection, Sky Ranch is here for you. 📅 Book your retreat TODAY: https://lnkd.in/etXchRv
