OAKHAVEN SERVICES
We offer three types of services, each with a specific purpose to refresh and equip you for endurance in ministry.
“I have attended many solitude retreats over the years facilitated by Pastor Dan, and have found them to be a place where I found spiritual rest. Amidst my hectic life, I find it refreshing to be among a handful of believers who intentionally seek time away to be with Jesus. You will find the resources provided, whether they are from books or from Scripture itself, draw your soul into intimate communion with the Lord. I also find that sharing with other participants at the end enriches the experience and testify that our Lord speaks to us in very unique ways.”
Retreats: support and space for you to connect with God—to process, pray, and plan.

“OakHaven has provided a safe place for me to confide in regarding ministry hardships and personal sins. It is rare to find such a caring ministry that offers professionally-trained Christian counseling.”
“Vera puts in much thought and effort in content creation and she encourages each person to think deeply on Biblical truths. In her teaching and assignments, she ensures each person can progress at their own pace for their individual flourishing. Through her classes, I have used principles that resonate with me to share with others.”
