Still Waters Retreat was founded by Doug and Laura Case with a simple yet profound mission—to provide a place of rest, renewal, and restoration for those who dedicate their lives to serving others. From pastors leading their congregations to military personnel, police officers, and firefighters who stand on the front lines, countless men and women carry the weight of responsibility, often at great personal cost.

Doug’s passion for this mission runs deep. After working closely with first responders throughout his career, he witnessed firsthand the toll that service takes—physically, mentally, and spiritually. He and Laura recognized the urgent need for a place where these heroes could step away from the demands of their calling and find true restoration.

The reality is staggering—many in these roles experience exhaustion, burnout, and emotional strain, yet they rarely take time to pause and replenish their souls. Still Waters Retreat was created as a refuge, a sanctuary where those who serve can rest without distraction, reconnect with their purpose, and return to their mission stronger than before.

Inspired by Psalm 23:2—"He leads me beside still waters; He restores my soul."—this retreat exists because those who serve deserve a place to heal. By partnering with this vision, you help provide a much-needed lifeline for those who give so much to others.

Will you be a part of this mission? Your generosity ensures that pastors, first responders, and military personnel never have to walk through exhaustion and burnout alone. Together, we can make sure that those who have spent their lives serving others receive the restoration they so desperately need.
