Ginger, Williamsburg Christian Retreat Center (WCRC)“It is a great way to reorient your perspective toward Christmas. Guests start in the dark and walk uphill through a lighted path toward the campfire, reminding family and friends of life’s journey and how to keep the focus on the light of Christ.”
The Christmas event promises to be a great time and a wonderful experience for any community members who want to celebrate the holiday season in a unique way while also keeping Christ at its core. Here, you can de-stress and take time out for yourself, enjoying the outdoor pine cone-scented air and reconnecting with the reason for the season.
