We’re thrilled to launch the Georgia Baptist Conference Center BLOG and wanted to take this post to let you know what to expect each week when you read!

Georgia Baptist Conference Center in Toccoa continues to be an ideal spot for businesses, churches, youth groups and camps, and other organizations to escape to the North East Georgia Mountains and spend time on our beautiful campus, enjoy delicious food, and stay comfortable in our fully modernized lodgings.

In this peaceful environment, you can meet, worship, plan, brainstorm or whatever with you need to do while on a retreat with your business colleagues or fellow church members.

Georgia Baptist Conference Center is where you RENEW, RELAX, REJOICE. We are privileged to hear so many guests tell us about their positive experiences while here that we began to think, “Hey, we should be sharing these with others!”.

So one thing you’ll see on this weekly blog is stories, comments, and interesting details from churches, youth groups, and businesses that stayed at Georgia Baptist Conference Center and really want to share their experiences with others. We love it, because we already know this place is pretty special – now others can too!

The other thing you’ll find here is posts about what makes us tick and thoughts on how we continue to make the Center an ideal retreat and meeting location.

For instance, in the recent Georgia Baptist Conference magazine there’s a really interesting section on The Defeated Spirit. It goes on with a list of four signs: We feel overwhelmed, We think we will fail, We lack courage, We engage with criticism.

As counter-intuitive as it may be, time spent away from the regular schedule to renew, relax, rejoice can often be just the ticket in getting you back to where you want to be. We passionately believe that sustaining an environment like Georgia Baptist Conference Center is good for our communities, businesses, and churches!

Check each week for a great blog post and leave MANY COMMENTS — we love hearing from YOU!
