The L.O.F.T. Pastor’s Reset
A gentle rhythm, not a rigid one.
Thursday — Arrive in the afternoon and settle in. Around 5:30, we’ll serve a light supper of soup, sourdough, and salad. Afterward, you’ll be free to visit with us, wander the grounds, explore nearby Franklin, or have some quiet time in the Orangerie — our creekside gathering space..During your stay, we will always be available for personal ministry - for prayer or just to be heard.
Friday — Breakfast at 8 a.m. in the sunroom. Since this breakaway is uniquely designed for each person/couple, we will accommodate you any way we can. provide a quiet space, a listening ear, join you on a walk. Your choice for lunch will be here or if you prefer to check out a few places nearby. Again, the afternoon will be your choice: to rest, nap if you need to, journal, visit with us. At 5:30, we gather for a Sabbath Table meal, followed by an evening of worship around the table, closing gently between 8:30 and 9.
Saturday — Breakfast of eggs, sourdough, and coffee between 8 and 8:30. We encourage our guests to take a full day off for rest and replenishing: go for a walk, read, journal, play a game, paint, play music (we have a piano and guitar here), or anything else that restores the soul.
Sunday — A slow morning together before you head home. No agenda, no rush — just breakfast, a final unhurried conversation, and a blessing before you go.
Throughout your time here, we are simply available — to listen, to love, and to pray with you, whenever and however you need it.
Come weary. Leave refreshed.

PASTORS' SOUL CARE RESET
Three to four days. Your wife is welcome. By invitation. A gift— at no cost to you.
Pastors carry a weight most people never see. Week after week, they show up for everyone else — and rarely have a place to simply be met themselves. More than most people realize, pastors get kicked in the gut — quietly, repeatedly — and keep going anyway.
We created this space for you, pastor.. Not a conference. Not a program. Just time — A reset - relaxed and unhurried..
Michael and Lylah are here to host you, not to lead a schedule. There's nothing you have to do here. Only space to relax, reconnect, and reset — and the quiet knowledge that you are understood, and not alone.
This gift is made possible by donors who believe pastors deserve to be cared for too. There is no cost to you. Just a gentle pause from the pace of everyday life — time to slow down, reconnect, and to be loved for who you are outside of what you do..
