Groups
We recognize the tremendous spiritual benefit of regularly being around other Christians in order to explore God's values and orient our lives toward those values. Thus, Christians
of The Orchard meet in groups (monthly, weekly) for dialog, inspiration, encouragement, exploration, and prayer.
Retreats
The Orchard holds frequent weekend retreats to deepen our spiritual relationship with our Lord and to build stronger relationships with one another.- for men, women, couples, parents, singles, etc. Typically these retreats are away from the busyness of the Washington area (for example, the Shenendoah Mountains to the West or Southern Maryland).
