Our History

LWR began as a God-inspired work for founders Alan and Donna Phillips.  When they came to the Phillips Family pasture, they knew that developing a retreat center where people could get away from the distractions of life, rest, relax and be refreshed was to be their life mission.

​

Today the dream that was planted in the hearts of Alan and Donna has become a reality and has been very fulfilling.  The legacy that began in 1974 will live long into the future as a testament to hard work and faith that what God began, He will see through to completion.
