How to Help

These much needed retreats are provided at no cost to the pastor/couples.

We are convinced a fee-free experience enhances the pastor's sense of God's provision and does not place any financial burden upon those who live on a very limited income.

Therefore, we depend soley upon the compassion and generosity of people who place a high value upon the role of the pastor and the need for such ministry. As God has directed us, we prayerfully ask Him to provide the need through the gifts of caring individuals and churches.

Waterbrook Ministries NFP is a 501(c)3 dba (doing business as) Deer Ridge Ministries, a religious non-profit entity, making all gifts tax deductible.

We ask you to sincerely pray for this ministry and God's guidance. Your monthly or quarterly financial commitment will make it possible for dedicated pastors to come for needed rest and spiritual renewal.

A gift of $500 will make it possible for a pastor to attend a Deer Ridge Ministries retreat. Each five-day retreat costs roughly $2000 total for all guests, their meals, educational materials and facilities

If you have prayerfully considered this need and feel God directing you to provide a financial support gift, you can easily use the available online donation venue through PayPal.* Alternatively, you can send your donation to the following address:

Deer Ridge Ministries
401 Meadows Street
Polo, Illinois 61064

We sincerely appreciate your prayers and your financial support for this ministry!
