🌿KINGDOM COMMUNITY AT WCRC 🌿

Starting Thursday Sept 17th

A Camper At Wcrc Making Popcorn Using The Popcorn Bonfire.

Gather. Connect. Grow.

WCRC is creating new opportunities to gather, connect, and grow beyond camp and retreats.

Kingdom Community brings people together through monthly gatherings built around shared interests, life stages, faith, and friendship. Whether you’re looking for a new community, hoping to meet people in a similar season of life, or simply want to enjoy the WCRC property with others, there’s a place for you.

Our gatherings are casual, welcoming, and designed to help people build genuine relationships while creating space for faith and spiritual growth.

Come meet new people. Enjoy WCRC. Grow together.


FIND YOUR COMMUNITY

🔥 Men’s Fireside Fellowship

A monthly gathering for men to connect, unwind, and talk about faith and life. Whether you’re navigating career and family, enjoying retirement, or somewhere in between, there’s a place for you around the fire.

September Gathering:
S’mores Around the Fire
📅 Thursday, September 17
🕖 7:00 PM

Come enjoy a fire, s’mores, conversation, and good company.

Bring: A camp chair and a friend. We’ll handle the firewood and s’mores!


🌿 Women Rooted Together

A monthly gathering for women to connect, encourage one another, enjoy the outdoors, and grow together in faith. Each month will offer something a little different—from walks and conversation to seasonal activities, service opportunities, and time around the table or fire.

September Gathering:
Meet, Mingle & Walk
📅 Thursday, September 24
🕖 6:00 PM

Come as you are, meet some new women, enjoy a walk around WCRC, and spend time connecting with others in the community.

Bring: Comfortable shoes and a friend or come solo!


🌱 Iron to Iron Young Adults

For young adults ages 18–29

Building meaningful friendships and growing in faith is better together. Iron to Iron is a monthly gathering for young adults ages 18–29 to connect, have fun, explore faith, and build a community that goes beyond a single event.

Inspired by Proverbs 27:17, “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another,” Iron to Iron creates space for authentic conversations, friendship, faith, and fun.

October Gathering:
Popcorn Bonfire, Wagon Ride & Crafts
📅 Thursday, October 1
🕖 6:00 PM

Come hang around the fire, take a wagon ride, get creative, and meet other young adults from the Williamsburg area.

Bring: Yourself and a friend!


MORE THAN AN EVENT

Kingdom Community isn’t just about filling a calendar. It’s about creating places where relationships can grow.

Gatherings may include:

🔥 Bonfires and fireside conversations
🥾 Hiking and walks around the WCRC property
🎨 Crafts and creative activities
🚜 Wagon rides
☕ Coffee and conversation
🎯 Games and outdoor recreation
❤️ Service and volunteer opportunities

🌳 Simply enjoying time together

Activities will change from month to month, so there’s always something new to experience.


WHY KINGDOM COMMUNITY?

At Williamsburg Christian Retreat Center, we believe ministry doesn’t have to happen only during summer camp or a weekend retreat.

Sometimes ministry looks like sitting around a fire.
Sometimes it’s a walk with a new friend.
Sometimes it’s a conversation over coffee.
And sometimes it’s simply having a place where you know you belong.

Kingdom Community gives people in Williamsburg and the surrounding Hampton Roads community a regular opportunity to experience WCRC, build relationships, and grow together.


WHO CAN JOIN?

Men’s Fireside Fellowship: For men
Women Rooted Together: For women
Iron to Iron Young Adults: For male and females Ages 18–29

You don’t need to be a WCRC camper, retreat guest, church member, or previous participant to attend.

New to WCRC? You’re welcome here.

Bring a friend or come solo, meet someone new, and see what Kingdom Community is all about.
