2023 Cookson Hills Marriage Retreat - Oklahoma Fall Trip

Have you ever been part of a marriage retreat serving other couples?  For several years, SECC has sent a short-term team of married couples to Cookson Hills to provide a Marriage Retreat for the house parents.  The team provides encouragement, training and fellowship to couples who often serve up to eight children as full-time parents.

The on-site couples look forward to the retreat each year and love the relationships that are generated through the trip. Having concentrated time to focus on building up their spouses and strengthening their marriages is a blessing to both the couples being ministered to, and to those who go on mission to serve them.

The beauty of this trip is we have couples that attend every year because of the bond that develops between them and the house parents.  If you are a married couple who would like to not only minister to the house parents at Cookson Hills, but develop friendships with other couples at Southeast, this is the trip for you!

Since 1957, Cookson Hills has provided home, school, and therapy for kids who are at-risk. They are a children’s home in Northeast Oklahoma, serving kids ages 5-17 who want to write a better story for their lives and have experienced challenges with family life, homelessness, poor peer relationships, abuse, or neglect. Compelled by the love of Christ, the Cookson Hills team works together to fulfill their vision – to raise up healthy individuals who are empowered to positively impact future generations.

If this short-term trip is calling to you, keep an eye out for when the registration window opens and complete the trip application.  Once approved, the Team Leader will contact you with the next steps.

We look forward to serving you!
