TRF Marriage Retreat

  • Darby's Warrior Support Lodge (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Surrender is not a Ranger Word! Neither is retreat. However, in the context of our marriages, sometimes we need to slow down and make some assessments and some azimuth adjustments to make the most of our marriages. In this context, a retreat is authorized and often necessary! So, TRF is hosting our second annual marriage retreat.

This is TRF’s second marriage enrichment retreat and to accomplish it we are partnering with Darby’s Warrior Support (DWS) and will utilize their brand-new lodge in Searcy, Arkansas. The entire marriage retreat is hosted by DWS and fully funded by TRF. The only cost for participants is to cover your travel to and from the event. All lodging, food, retreat materials, and extracurricular activities will be covered by TRF. This event is limited to seven couples and is designed for married couples who are seeking some quality time together to intentionally connect and deepen their relationships.

The topics covered during the retreat will be: Communication 101, Understanding and Expressing Love, Initiating Positive Change, and How to Share Things That Bug You. Let’s be honest, most of these topics cause issues in all our marriages from time to time. So, it is helpful to develop some strategies to address these issues before they become insurmountable obstacles. So, whether you are in a season of stability or just seeking growth and repair in particular areas of your marriage, this retreat will foster a greater understanding of each other and how to support flourishing as a couple.

The venue at DWS is world class. Every couple will have a private bedroom, and most will have a private bath. There will be four group sessions and some breakout opportunities including: hiking, boating, and an intentional date night with your spouse, etc. It is just a chance to reconnect with other Ranger couples, enjoy some early fall Arkansas weather/scenery, and world-class accommodations. Dates are 24-26 October, 2025.

My wife Gaye and I are going to be the primary retreat facilitators. Our marriage is not perfect, but we have learned a bit about how to fight on (no pun intended) to the objective and complete the mission in the past 37+ years of marriage (22+ years of which was spent in the Regiment or other SOF units). Gaye and I are Christians, and we cannot help you without sharing some of what God has done for us in our marriage. We are not going to beat you over the head and shoulders with the Bible, but be prepared to hear about how we believe God designed us to live in a marriage relationship.

This is a marriage retreat only--not an intensive marriage seminar, so please do not sign up if you and your spouse are in a situation involving domestic violence, addiction, or other serious relational issues. If any of these situations fits you, please contact me (phone and email info below), and I will do what I can to assist you with finding a more intensive program with highly trained practitioners who are able to provide the extra help you need.

Please contact me ASAP at the contact info below if you are interested in attending the next TRF Marriage Retreat with your spouse- as I said, space is limited. RSVP closes 19 September.

RLTW!

Warriors Battle

Why Warriors Battle?

Military veterans and first responders face unique challenges based on their chosen occupations. The Warriors Battle is a unique opportunity to address those challenges and face them through proven biblical faith based approach. Many Warriors have tried almost everything to address their challenges and are still low on hope. The Warriors Battle will bring restoration through building your faith, healing from the past and winning life battles!

Warriors Battle is hosted by Warriors Set Free, which is a ministry run by Veterans for Veterans. Typically a Veteran will only be comfortable talking to another Veteran about the experiences they have had in a war or military service. Trying to explain your military experience to a civilian has its challenges. They remove that problem by training Vets to help Vets.

The 2024 Event was an overwhelming success having raised $34,900! Thank you to our sponsors, the many in attendance and the US Army Ranger community for volunteering to work the event.

The funds raised in sponsorships went to Hooah Inc 501(c)(3) to save veteran’s lives by facilitating the costs associated with getting them (and a family member) to Accelerated Resolution Therapy at Warrior Wellness in Holiday, Fl. Funds raised at the event went to the US Army Ranger Association 501(c)(3) for Ranger Community assistance and outreach.
