Easter Respite 2025


Overview

Monday 4/21-friday 4/25/2025

registration will open on epiphany 1/6/25.

Are you ready for a break following Easter? Whether you are an installed teaching elder, commissioned ruling elder, transitional pastor, or other church leader, the season of Lent is a busy one! After we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, come and rest.

PC(USA) leaders and other friends of Massanetta who have previously attended programs are welcome to join us anytime from April 21-25 at no cost. Arrive on Monday and stay for all four nights, or come for any part of these days. Family members are welcome to join you!

We provide lodging and a free buffet breakfast on Tuesday morning at 8:30. There are many other dining options available in the Harrisonburg area to enjoy during the rest of your stay.

Did we mention it’s free?

Register

registration will open on epiphany 1/6/25.

Hubler Lodge is available for those who can check out by 10AM Thursday 4/24. (Easter is late this year, and we have a longstanding partnership to honor that weekend!) These hotel-style rooms with two queen beds and a private bathroom are available first come, first served basis.

Richardson is available for those wanting to stay for the full week. Private suites are available for individuals and families. There are several suites with queen beds, which will be available first come, first served by request.

All PC(USA) church leaders are welcome, as well as partners from other denominations who have attended or led programs at Massanetta previously. Questions? Reach out to Colleen, our Program Director, at colleen@massanettasprings.org.

Things to do

In addition to exploring our site, there is much to do in and around Harrisonburg! We have a few ideas for organizing some fun (like a golf outing or game night) that you’ll be able to sign up for when you register.

Colleen Earp, our Program Director, moved to the area when she joined the staff in fall 2021. Click below for some of her favorite place she’s found so far, including coffee shops, food, hiking, and more.
