Kirkridge Retreat & Study Center

Come Home to Kirkridge

Where courage is kindled & kindred spirits are found.

Located on the homelands of the Lenape people, Kirkridge Retreat and Study Center welcomes groups and individuals in search of a time apart–for rest, for celebration, for reflection, for community building, for focused work.

This is a place of beauty and wonder. A space to wander and rest where the land listens and the stones speak. A place to kindle courage and stumble upon kindred spirits. A place tingling with spirit summoning the work of justice. It is a place to ask, “what does it mean to be human?” and “how do we tend to our souls?”

Perched on the Kittatinny Ridge in the Pocono Mountains, Kirkridge Retreat and Study Center is a refuge for everyone seeking to live humanly in a violent world.

May we always be people of hope, who give with open arms and caution thrown to the wind - In my time, energy, and money given to Kirkridge, I have felt repaid, tenfold. I hope you have felt the same.

The Stones Cry Out

Sometimes the confrontation between love and desecration is so intense that, according to scripture, even the stones will cry out.
