Heroes Retreat


As a veteran or first responder, you know how you entered service. But have you ever explored what truly called you there in the first place?

Through sacred ceremony, community, and reflection, Heroes Retreat creates space to better understand the path you've walked, the experiences that shaped you, and the person you're becoming.

This scheduled retreat is part of our Heroes Retreat offering. For the full retreat description, who it is for, what’s included, and how to prepare, please visit the full Heroes Retreat page.

  • About This Date

    This is a scheduled date for Heroes Retreat, an Agape Church member retreat for veterans and first responders, rooted in prayer, sacred ceremony, reflection, live medicine music, nourishing meals, nature, and community support.

    This retreat honors the uniform without reducing you to it. The focus is not on reliving old stories or reinforcing the identity that service required. Instead, participants are invited to explore the person beneath the role, the experiences that shaped them, and the path they are walking now.

    Before registering, please review the full Heroes Retreat page for complete details about this offering, including who it is for, what’s included, and how to prepare.

    • 2 Yagé prayer ceremonies
    • Live medicine music
    • Integration circles and guided reflection
    • Veteran and first responder community
    • Time in nature and shared reflection
    • Nourishing meals
    • Shared lodging

    Scholarship Support

    Some scholarship support may be available through Agape Heroes Foundation.

    If you are seeking grant support, please complete the Heroes Retreat registration form and await a determination email before assuming your space is confirmed.

    Scholarships are limited and are offered according to available funds, eligibility, and retreat fit.

    Membership & Registration

    Agape Church retreats are open to members who complete the retreat registration process.

    Membership is the first step into the community. Retreat registration is separate and includes a review of contraindications, medications, preparation needs, sincerity, and retreat fit.

    Because our retreats involve entheogenic sacraments, we ask each participant to approach registration with honesty, humility, and care.

    Donation Information

    Recommended donation: $900 if paid in full.

    A $450 minimum donation is required to complete your registration request unless you are applying for scholarship support through Agape Heroes Foundation.

    Submission of a registration form and minimum donation does not guarantee participation. If Agape Church determines your registration cannot move forward due to contraindications, safety concerns, or retreat fit, your minimum donation will be refunded.

    If your registration is accepted and you later cancel, withdraw, fail to complete preparation requirements, or do not attend, your minimum donation is non-refundable.

    Remaining suggested donation is due 10 days before arrival unless adjusted through approved scholarship support.
