Faith-Based Retreats for Bereaved Parents Kansas

Our Kansas While We’re Waiting Weekends are held at C​r​oss Wind Retreats in Hesston, Kansas. This venue is a nonprofit ministry that primarily hosts summer camps for foster children and children whose parents are in prison, and this much-needed program has expanded internationally. During the “off season”, they host retreats for groups like ours, and we are pleased to partner with them to offer While We’re Waiting Weekends for Bereaved Parents in the central United States! The Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport is just 40 minutes away.

Lodging at Cross Wind for Friday and Saturday nights and all meals from Friday night through Sunday morning are provided, and there is no cost to attend this retreat.

This event is open to both single parents and married couples. All attendees must meet the requirements of our Attendance Eligibility Policy and comply with our Housing Policy.

Please review both policies in the About Us drop-down menu before registering.

    At this time, there are no retreats on the calendar for this location, but we anticipate adding one (or more) soon!
