ARC (Action, Reflection, Celebration), is a
Retreat Center operated by a residential community, rooted in Christian tradition, emphasizing the values
of simplicity, justice and healing, mercy and prayer, serving individuals and groups seeking
time apart, rest and spiritual renewal.



The
Lodge at ARC
ARC is located 55
miles north of Minneapolis,
on 90 acres in central Minnesota’s pine woods. We offer four-season hospitality for over 20 people in
our cedar Lodge, Hermitage, and Cottage
(a complete home.) Spiritual direction, retreat ministry,
and a labyrinth meditation experience are available to retreatants,
as well as a fine library of spiritual books and journals.
Therapeutic massage can be arranged with advance notice. Trails for
walking, cross-country skiing or snowshoeing wind through woods and wetlands.
