Description: A beautiful, peaceful missionary retreat center, in Apison, Tennesse. Offering time to rest and recover in your missionary journey.
“My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” Exodus 33:14
Beginning of the Rest is a Christian non-profit that is all about missionaries being refreshed in their relationships as family, well rested in their souls, renewed in their walk with God and ready for the rest of their journey. To this end we desire to create a quiet place for rest, stillness before God and soul care. A welcoming space for all to have a chance to be heard, unpack the realities and paradoxes of missionary life and gain the tools to live and lead from a healthy soul.
“Listening is the highest form of hospitality - not to change people but to offer them space where change can take place.” - Henri Nouwen
