  We had the most delightful Weekend Retreat at DeFalco! And as always they were so accommodating towards our group. We had 67 people staying on site and others in and out. We used their whole building! It truly feels like "home" while we are there and the staff is readily available to help with our every need or desire and serve with grace and joy. But more importantly, the Presence of the LORD is in that place! It is evident in the Peace that is felt throughout the facility and the grounds. The whole venue is so very comfortable. Thank you, DeFalco Staff, for being part of our family and treating us like part of yours!

  The DeFalco Retreat Center was a wonderful place to hold our Pampa Independent School District Administrative Retreat! The facilities and food were impeccable, the service was fast and friendly, and the environment was perfect for a variety of activities. We can’t wait to go back!

  “The Bishop DeFalco Center has hosted clergy groups of varying sizes from the Episcopal Diocese of Northwest Texas over the past few years. Each time we have received excellent service, delicious food and were made to feel very welcome and cared for. We look forward to the next time we are able to gather together at the retreat center.”

  My chapel staff conducts beautiful ministry in a very demanding setting. By God's grace we have been together for nearly ten years now. I am convinced that the Bishop DeFalco retreat center has played a significant role in our longevity. Our group and personal retreats for renewal always find prayerfully cultivated serenity at DeFalco, and the staff is exceptionally loving and thoughtful. We are deeply grateful.

  On April 1, 2 & 3, 2019, the presbyters of the Episcopal Diocese of Northwest Texas conducted our annual conference at the Bishop DeFalco Retreat and Conference center for the first time. We were extremely impressed with the facilities, especially the recently renovated sleeping rooms and the hospitality room. The food was outstanding, and the staff went out of their way to make us feel both welcomed and cared for. All in all, I cannot imagine how it could have been better. Thank you so much for your important ministry.

  Thank you Bishop DeFalco Retreat and Conference Center! Our administrative team is so grateful for the wonderful experience that we had at our recent retreat. The facility was sparkling clean, and the lodging was so comfortable. We especially injoyed the delicious food prepared by your chef. There were so many comfortable pkaces for us to work and relax, both inside and outside. All of these things exceed our expectation, but the greatest thing was the spirit of helpful graciousness demonstrated by every staff member we encountered. The peaceful, welcoming environment surrounded us throught our stay there. We couldn't have ask for a better place to plan our upcoming school year. A special thanks to Janice who coordinated everything so well.

  This has always been a special place. A place to come and feel God's presence no matter what is going on in your life. Whether it is for a retreat, retreat formation, or even the gift shop... the staff and the atmosphere allow God to come alive ina new way. Thank you so much!

  The retreat room renovations are so beautiful! We spend a lot of time at the retreat center attending deaconate formation classes
  and we were pleasantly surprised by all the amenities that made us feel comfortable and pampered. We can tell this was truly
  a labor of love and we so appreciate the time and effort behind this project.

  Last summer my family hosted our Family Reunion at the Bishop DeFalco Retreat Center and I can’t imagine a better place! The recently remodeled rooms were so nice and well cared for. We loved all the common areas that are available which gave us ample space to spend time together! We even had game night in the courtyard one night! The food is always wonderful and it was so nice to have that aspect taken care of for us. The staff is always available for help and we always had everything we needed. Everyone had a great time and loved the accommodations!

  "I don't have the words to express how thankful I am to Linda, Janice, Jason and Dianna! The love of Jesus shines brightly through them. The Bishop DeFalco Retreat Center is truly a retreat. It gave me the opportunity to withdraw myself from my life in general and to move into a quiet place of solitude. Every physical and emotional need was met. Our Lord Jesus in his loving kindness has fed me spiritually. I'll be back! May God bless and protect each of you and your loved ones."
