Founded in 1947, Lake Brownwood Christian Retreat was established as a Christ centered camp where both youth and adults could come for spiritual growth and fellowship.  Now, more than 65 years later, we are still welcoming guests to the Retreat seeking to spend time with God, reconnect with their brothers and sisters in Christ or simply to get away from the hectic day-to-day we call life.

Situated on a peninsula overlooking beautiful Lake Brownwood, wonderful views abound from sunrise to sunset.   Our natural, wooded setting inspires and moves individuals to grow in their spiritual relationship.  With our walking trails, prayer garden, outdoor worship area, camp fire circle, sports complex and water activities, everyone is sure to find their little piece of heaven on earth.

Located in the Heart of Texas, LBCR is within a few hours drive from most parts of the state.  The Retreat, supported by the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) of the Central Area, welcomes all denominations of Christian faith.

Friendship Circle

The cross is centered in Lake Brownwood Christian Retreat, reminding us that Christ is at the center of all we do. Groups gather around the Friendship Circle to open and close their camps, holding hands, singing songs and joining in prayer.

Vespers

Vespers is the holy place of LBCR. Groups often gather here for sunrise worship or closing praise service. Individuals love the peaceful outdoor sanctuary for quiet meditation or personal reflection.  It is a favorite  for many since it's natural setting overlooks the water and truly has one of the best views on Lake Brownwood.
