Make Time for What Matters Most
This Spring, carve out time to be intentional—in your marriage, your faith, and your family. Join us for the HomeBuilders Spring Retreat, April 24–26, 2026, and enjoy all the Gulf Coast has to offer – sun, surf, seafood, and shopping.
Our theme, Intentional: Do It on Purpose (James 1:22), challenges couples to stop drifting and start building lives that reflect God’s truth with clarity and conviction. This weekend is designed to help you realign your priorities and equip your family to thrive.
Throughout the retreat, you’ll participate in impactful main sessions and choose from practical breakout tracks on marriage, parenting, finances, personal development, and health issues—each designed to meet you where you are and move you forward with purpose.
Whether it’s your first retreat or you’ve come before, this is more than time away—it’s an intentional investment in your family and your future.
Join us. Be refreshed. Live on purpose.
FRIDAY EVENING kicks off your get-away with dinner and a time to experience food, friends, and fellowship. The first general session will be Friday night, and don’t forget afterwards the refreshments, free time, and fellowship.
SATURDAY’s schedule allows you to customize the conference to meet your specific needs in the areas of marriage, parenting, personal growth, health, family relationships, and finance with concurrent morning sessions followed by Connect Time to allow you to discuss what you have just learned in the sessions. Table Talk allows you to meet with the presenter of your choice and discuss the topic of your choice. Saturday afternoon is set aside as free-time to Gulf Coast attractions including sun, sand, seafood, and shopping.
SATURDAY EVENING includes a time of worship and a Q&A session with the presenters to address your specific topics and concerns followed by a challenge. Afterwards enjoy refreshments, camp fire, free time, and fellowship.
SUNDAY’s schedule again allows you to choose between concurrent sessions pertaining to the family to tailor the morning to your specific interests followed by Connect Time. The general session wraps up the retreat with a summary and challenge.
Come renew your relationship with the Lord, your mate, your future mate, or friends while learning practical application of Biblical principles to every-day family life.
