NoVA Great Banquet Weekends

Women’s weekend: November 20 – 23, 2025

Men’s weekend: December 4 – 7, 2025

Seeking to make meaningful spiritual friendships with people in our diverse NoVA community? Ever wondered what it would feel like to be immersed in God’s love and grace in a profound and personal way? Then participating in a Great Banquet weekend is for you! The Great Banquet is a 72-hour weekend experience, held every spring and fall, where guests live and study together in worship, prayer, and discussion. It is an opportunity to make sincere spiritual friendships, be still, and listen for Christ’s plan for this world and for our lives. The Fall 2025 Great Banquets will be hosted at Meadowkirk Retreat Center in Middleburg, VA.

This dynamic weekend has been changing lives for over 20 years and involves a collaboration of churches across NoVA, strengthening the spiritual lives of people from all walks of faith and church backgrounds. As the parable of the Great Banquet illustrates, all are welcome! In keeping with the Great Banquet’s vision of hospitality, there is no financial cost to participate.
