HOW WE STARTED
HOW WE STARTED
In 2014 The 1687 Foundation Retreat Program hosted its very first retreat.
That event was the culmination of a God-whispered vision that the founders, Patti and Danny "Woody" Wood acted upon. Patti and Woody wanted to share the beauty and peace of God's creation at their beloved ranch with others who might be healed, renewed, and restored there.
Like the movie, Field of Dreams, together they believed if they built it, the right ones would find their way there.
Since that first event, hundreds of people's lives have been uplifted and often transformed by their retreat experience. In fact, the outpouring of need for restoration and healing by so many led to the addition of The 1687 Hunting & Fishing Ministry.
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
Psalm 147:3 (NIV)
