Retreat for Two at the Billy Graham Training Center at The Cove in the Blue Ridge Mountains, North Carolina

The Servant Heart Award recipient receives an all-expense-paid retreat for two people for a 3-day seminar of their choice at the Billy Graham Training Center at The Cove in the Blue Ridge Mountains just outside of Asheville, North Carolina. Nestled in the mountains with peaceful forests and sparkling streams, The Cove, a ministry of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, was prayerfully designed so people could leave behind the pressures and distractions of life and be refreshed by focusing on God and His Word. The Cove is unparalleled in creating a transforming experience that will refresh your pastor and energize his or her ministry to your church.

Last year's winner, Pastor Walter Colace of Christ Community Church in El Centro, California, provided this testimony about his stay at The Cove:

"CTA, thank you for the wonderful gift of sending my wife and me to the Cove. I have to say the Cove was an unforgettable experience. I had some idea of the beauty of it through pictures I've seen on the internet, but it was nothing like being there in person. The lush landscaping and the fresh air, along with it's seclusion, provided an optimum environment for drawing closer to Christ. Howard Hendricks and Mark Yarborough were our teachers for the weekend and did an outstanding job of illuminating God's Word to us. Through the fabulous teaching and private times of prayer our hearts were overflowing with the blessings of God. My wife and I both gave the room accommodations and dining experience an A plus. Once again, thank you for your generosity in blessing us with a gift that will be forever with us!"
