SATURDAY

Gather for a final morning devotional and time to reflect on what you want to take home with you before heading home. 

I specifically DON’T want this to look like every minute is scheduled. One of the benefits of the new format is that families have space to enjoy the experience on their own.

DAY 6

Every family wants a great fall break. But some experiences are worth far more than the memories they create. The Forge is more than a vacation—it’s an opportunity to step away from the noise of everyday life and truly be together. You’ll laugh, explore, adventure, worship, and make memories your family will never forget. More importantly, you’ll have the time and space to strengthen your marriage, deepen your relationships with your children, and draw closer to God. You can take your family to incredible places, but there is something powerful about intentionally setting aside time to invest in the people you love most. The Forge isn’t just about where your family goes this fall. It’s about who you become when you go together.

Space is limited! Book your family today to be one of the 10 families to experience The Forge Family Summit this fall.
STAY TOGETHER

First EXPERIENCE

THE FIRST FORGE

We're starting small.
The first Forge isn’t going to be a massive conference or a perfectly choreographed retreat.
We’re bringing together just five families for three nights in the mountains to see what happens when families intentionally step away from the noise and spend time together.
You'll be part of the very first Forge.
Five families
Three nights
One unforgettable beginning
THE TAKE-HOME PROMISE

The Retreat Ends. The Renewal Continues.

The most valuable part of the retreat is what happens after you leave. Position the client’s follow-up resources, family practices, or ongoing community support here.

How could this experience benefit my family?

In a world that constantly pulls families in different directions, it’s easy to be together without truly connecting. Between packed schedules and endless screens, meaningful family time can become harder to find. The Forge gives your family the space to unplug, be present, and rediscover what it feels like to truly enjoy being together—while giving you the tools and rhythms to carry that connection home and make it last.

The retreat runs during Fall Break from October 13th to 17th. Specific location details and directions will be sent directly to your email after registration.
You will experience high-adventure activities like ziplining, high ropes, caving, waterfall rappelling, and team night games. We also host meaningful spiritual sessions, including a family faith walk and forging a family sword.
No. All of our guided outdoor challenges include options for all skill and comfort levels. Your family’s safety and confidence are our top priorities.
Yes. The Forge is carefully designed for entire families to connect. Activities offer varying challenge tiers so that children, teens, and parents can all participate safely.
