An Invitation
 
“Holly Cove” has been a place of retreat for our family for 36 years; and for the last sixteen years, an increasing number of groups have found this to be a very special place where all ages find it easy to find God's presence.

Wanda and I will be pleased if your church or other group will consider using Holly Cove for retreats, meetings, etc. We are particularly excited about Christian groups that invite visitors who need Christian fellowship and a strong witness for our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Holly Cove is located on Lake Sam Rayburn near the West side of the dam, in the Piney Woods of East Texas. 6.5 acres are bounded by the Angelina National Forest and by the lake.  Wanda named it Holly Cove after the beautiful trees and coves. 

Facilities include an outdoor chapel in the woods, a railroad caboose, shuffleboard, croquet court, miniature golf and archery. Boating and walks in the forest are popular. We also play ping pong, horseshoes, washers, basketball, volleyball and board games. There is often a carnival or dinner in the woods on Saturday night. 

With the addition of a brand new bunk house, we have overnight accommodations for (50). In addition, there is plenty of room for camping. For day meetings, 100 or more can be accommodated. 

We can organize activities, or just provide the facilities. The purpose is to honor and glorify the name of our Lord Jesus. There are usually times of prayer, worship, testimony and devotion. These are wonderful times for the family, and great chances for getting to know Christian brothers and sisters. 

"... what counts is whether we have been changed into new and different people"  -      Galatians 6:15
