Oasis Meeting Needs

Read about Oasis Retreats Canada and a handful of testimonies from their work.

We work with couples in deep crisis.

“I did not even know what I wanted to happen or what I needed”

Our goal is to make them feel welcomed and received.

“I did not feel like any program was forced upon me. You skillfully helped me find the direction I needed to go in and walked through the issues with me. You were willing to listen, and did not have the answers before I asked the question.”

We work through deep wounds and core issues.

“It was very valuable to be able to work through some of our arguments in front of you, to receive your insights… and to hear some ideas of better ways to relate. That was so practical and helpful… Yes, we got to what I thought were core issues.”

We want them to leave with a renewed sense of hope for the future.

“You used a combination of love, identification and wise insight to bring God into our lives to help understand what I am going through. I have more hope now than before I came here.”

For this to happen in 5 days is a God-sized vision.

“God has used you in incredibly significant ways in our lives. You are now part of His redemption story in our own story. We are grateful.”
