Step Away &
Stand Stronger
Holy Toledo Men’s Retreat is a Christian men’s retreat built to help you disconnect from daily distractions and reconnect with Jesus Christ. Over one focused weekend, you will find biblical truth, honest brotherhood, and the courage to take your next step of faith.
Step away from the noise
Reconnect with Jesus Christ through a focused weekend of biblical truth, honest brotherhood, and spiritual renewal. Holy Toledo Men’s Retreat is designed to help men slow down, hear from God, and return home with stronger faith and clearer purpose.
Life moves fast
Many men carry the weight of work, family, responsibility, and constant distraction. Holy Toledo creates space to pause, reflect, and pursue a deeper walk with Christ alongside other men who want the same thing.
This retreat is for men age 18 and older who want to grow in faith, build meaningful brotherhood, and take their next step with God.
Why you should attend
Men come to Holy Toledo because they need time away from daily pressure and space to hear from God more clearly. The retreat is built to foster real spiritual growth, real accountability, and real brotherhood — not just a weekend away.
Hosted at Clara Springs Baptist Encampment, the retreat offers a setting that supports focus, rest, and meaningful connection.
“A good friend invited me to the retreat and shared his own experience with me. After hearing how much it impacted his life, I knew I wanted to go.
I arrived with an open mind, but I honestly had no idea what to expect. What I experienced was unlike anything I had ever been part of before. For a long time, I thought I was the only man who struggled with the things I struggled with. But during the retreat, I realized I was surrounded by men from many different walks of life who were facing many of the same battles.
The retreat helped me understand that faith is not meant to be walked alone. I left with a stronger relationship with Christ and a brotherhood of men that continues to grow each day. This retreat changed my life forever. It has helped improve my marriage, my relationship with my church family, and my bond with my Brothers in Christ.”
– Mike, Holy Toledo 1
“A friend invited me to my first retreat in November 2023. I came as a guest, unsure of what to expect and honestly a little skeptical. But those 48 hours changed my life.
My walk with Jesus was already good, but after the retreat, it became deeper and stronger. My desire to serve my family, friends, and church grew, along with my desire to see other men experience God in a fresh, life-changing way. Since then, I have served on many retreat teams, and watching the Holy Spirit change men’s lives never gets old.
No matter where you are in your relationship with God, this retreat is for you. Put your doubts aside, come see for yourself, and make the investment. I promise you will not regret it!”

“I came to the retreat carrying the weight of work, family responsibilities, and the constant noise of everyday life. I did not realize how badly I needed time to slow down, listen, and reconnect with God. Being surrounded by other men who were also seeking purpose, healing, and a closer relationship with Jesus helped me let my guard down.
I learned that I was not alone, and that real strength can come from honest conversation, prayer, and brotherhood. This retreat gave me a spiritual reset. I left with more peace, a renewed sense of direction, and a stronger desire to walk with God every day.”
– Cole, Holy Toledo 2
