Our Program
Our Homely Health Retreat welcomes you as a health guest through a supervised 18-day / 10-day live-in program, implementing GOD'S PLAN so that you can experience God's restoration power for you--body, mind and spirit. The program entails the cleansing of the body first. The body is then gradually strengthened and restored to start you on your new pathway to health and happiness. This process is accompanied with a healthy vegetarian fare and therapeutic treatments specifically designed to meet your individual needs. To enhance the understanding of your new life-style, classes on health, nutrition, stress, and cooking are presented to help you better understand how your body works. Learning how to incorporate the eight laws of health can change your life.

Accommodations
Our Homely Retreat is beautifully situated on 20 acres of secluded countryside property in North-Central, Saint Mary. In the midst of rolling hills, coconut, mango and breadfruit trees, where the peace and quiet of nature provides a tremendously soothing effect. It is topped off by the calm, consistent wind from the Caribbean Sea.
Our Homely Retreat accommodates health quests in a modest home with comfortably furnished rooms.
The Creator chose for our first parents the surroundings best adapted for their health and happiness. He did not place them in a palace or surround them with the artificial adornments and luxuries that so many today are struggling to obtain. He placed them in close touch with nature and in close communion with the holy ones of heaven.
In the garden that God prepared as a home for His children, graceful shrubs and delicate flowers greeted the eye at every turn. There were trees of every variety, many of them laden with fragrant and delicious fruit. On their branches the birds caroled their songs of praise. Under their shadow the creatures of the earth sported together without a fear.
The plan of life which God appointed for our first parents has lessons for us. Although sin has cast its shadow over the earth, God desires His children to find delight in the works of His hands. The more closely His plan of life is followed, the more wonderfully will He work to restore suffering humanity. The sick need to be brought into close touch with nature. An outdoor life amid natural surroundings would work wonders for many a helpless and almost hopeless invalid.The noise and excitement and confusion of the cities, their constrained and artificial life, are most wearisome and exhausting to the sick. The air, laden with smoke and dust, with poisonous gases, and with germs of disease, is a peril to life. The sick, for the most part shut within four walls, come almost to feel as if they were prisoners in their rooms. They look out on houses and pavements and hurrying crowds, with perhaps not even a glimpse of blue sky or sunshine, of grass or flower or tree. Shut up in this way, they brood over their suffering and sorrow, and become a prey to their own sad thoughts.And for those who are weak in moral power, the cities abound in dangers. In them, patients who have unnatural appetites to overcome are continually exposed to temptation. They need to be placed amid new surroundings where the current of their thoughts will be changed; they need to be placed under influences wholly different from those that have wrecked their lives. Let them for a season be removed from those influences that lead away from God, into a purer atmosphere.
