Welcome to the

Texas Christian Ashram

For more than 80 years, individuals and families have attended Christian Ashram retreats all around the world to find rest and recreation, encouraging teaching, and meaningful friendship. Each retreat offers a life-transforming opportunity to focus on JESUS in the midst of other people who believe in the hope of God's unshakable kingdom.

We recognize that each person is at a different place in life. One thing we have in common, is that life is tough sometimes. Sometimes we just need to unplug from all of life’s stressors and proactively focus on Jesus to recharge.  If you are looking for a place to have fun, recharge, learn, and grow in faith, surrounded by a group of fellow believers, this is the place for you and your family.

Our retreats are designed to provide a well-rounded experience, with inspiring teaching, uplifting worship, and engaging fellowship for all age groups. You'll have the opportunity to participate in small group discussions, reflective times of prayer, and fun recreational activities.

We believe that rest and recreation are important parts of spiritual growth, so we also offer a variety of recreational activities such as hiking, swimming, and games.

Our Mission

What is a Christian Ashram?

It is a Christ focused experience held in a retreat setting for the purpose of spiritual growth which makes God more real in daily living. This provides a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and a move toward the grace and presence of Jesus Christ.

This is where you can experience a transformative retreat for your soul. Our organization has been serving individuals and families for over 80 years, providing a place of rest, recreation, and meaningful fellowship.
