What We Offer

Angels’ Valley has been used by a great many groups and individuals over the past almost 30 years. We have hosted individuals, groups and families from the surrounding communities of Fort Assiniboine, Whitecourt, Barrhead, Westlock, Swan Hills and Onoway and from further afield including Edmonton, Spruce Grove, Sherwood Park, Lacombe, Red Deer, Hinton, Grande Prairie, Calgary and points north and south. We have had visitors from across Canada and from other countries and continents.

While our original focus was on helping individual Christians re-connect with the Lord and live their lives for Him, we also have acted as a host facility for group retreats, family reunions or get-togethers. Our chapel has been the site of marriage rededications and church services as well as evening hymn sings. We have groups come to do scrapbooking; hold homeschool retreats; do quilting workshops. We have hosted a large group of Campus Crusade for Christ and a Gospel music group from the States. We are thankful to be in Woodlands County and have reached out to the community groups in the County as a part of our community outreach and service to all. We have welcomed those who have come for a day to have a personal retreat as well as others who have simply offered to do some gardening work, painting and winter clean-up. We have had kind people donate lumber, furniture, cabins, equipment, toys and paintings. We are thankful for our Board members who spend time in prayer for us and who faithfully attend meetings and provide direction to our staff. We are thankful as well for our volunteer staff, Dwight and Pam Schjerning and others who have served on a volunteer basis in our kitchen and in the gardens.

Our Facilities: Our building of 6400 square feet has space for overnight sleeping for about 25-30 people depending on how many rooms are being shared (some sleep up to eight); we have dining room space for about 60 people; an open sun room; a prayer room; a children’s toy/games area; a chapel that seats about 30-50 people.

Why You Should Come

Hanging from the wall of our chapel are these words: “Surely the Presence of the Lord is in this Place”. That says it all: we believe that His presence will touch you and that His grace will meet your needs. You can spend time here on your own or with family and friends or you can meet with the managers of the Centre Pam and Dwight who will share some encouraging words and thoughts with you.
