Our annual weekend at the diocesan retreat center in the Shenandoah’s is a great time to relax, and spend time getting to know one another over mealtimes, worship, singing, and fellowship. While there are different programs offered, the only thing that is “mandatory” is that you enjoy yourself, have fun and take advantage of the slow pace of life over the weekend. If a glass of sweet-tea or a tasty Anglican beverage are calling to you from a porch rocker, then that’s where you need to be!
The kids strengthen their ties with their church friends, making up games and excursions to the pond in this beautiful natural setting. In an old-town atmosphere, the kids have more 
freedom than they do at home and know when the meal bells ring to gather at the dining room door, where we sit at large tables and eat family-style. Other highlights include a bonfire and s’mores, games, great conversation, and star gazing. We conclude the weekend on Sunday morning with Eucharist at the Shrine (which is the Cathedral for the Diocese of Virginia). If you haven’t yet joined St. Alban’s at Shrine Mont, add it to your list of things to do!
We’ve made our Shrine Mont weekend affordable for families! Children and youth registration fees are heavily subsidized by our Birthday fund. And since everyone needs to go to Shrine Mont, scholarships and other assistance are available. Please contact your clergy if you have any questions about financial assistance.
