THIS SPRING

Have you ever longed to slip away from the noise with your spouse—to a countryside estate where the world hushes, the trees flush in spring’s bloom, and love has space to breathe again?
This May, that longing finds its match.
Kindled is more than a marriage retreat.
It’s a quiet return to the vows you made, the joy you’ve known, and the God who still holds it all together.
Set in the candlelit beauty of Mayhurst during peak of spring, this retreat is an invitation for couples…
To slow down.
To draw near.
To let Christ rekindle your joy, your love, and your marriage.
Because your marriage is worthy of joy.
Worthy of rest.

MEET YOUR HOSTS
We’ve spent the past 15 years helping couples flourish in marriage. This is our chance to give one on one mentorship and investment into your marriage.
We know what it feels like to try and invest in your marriage while juggling raising children, renovating homes, running businesses ….losing your rhythm… and how sacred it is to pause in the busy and find your way back.
Today, we host guests from around the world at Mayhurst Estate and continue investing in marriages through intentional hospitality and gospel-centered teaching.
This retreat is for every couple—whether you’re newly married or decades in. If you’re longing to feel known, heard, refreshed and drawn together again, Kindled was created for you.
We believe marriage is worth tending—slowly, sacredly, and together.
That’s why we’ve chosen to close Mayhurst to the public during one of the most beautiful weekends of the year just to spoil you and pour into your marriage.
