The Prayer Room is Open!
At Muskoka Bible Centre, the breathtaking beauty of God’s creation invites reflection, renewal, and a deeper connection with Him. Free from the noise and busyness of daily life, we have the space to listen, seek, and draw near to the Lord.
Prayer is woven into the very fabric of MBC. Many of our retreats feature a Prayer Room—a peaceful, welcoming sanctuary where you can commune with God and rest in His presence. Whether you seek solitude, a moment of shared prayer with a friend, or the compassionate support of our trained Biblical Care staff, the Prayer Room is a space designed for you to encounter God.
Faith begins with a single prayer—an earnest cry for God’s saving grace. As we journey with Him, prayer remains vital, sustaining and strengthening our walk. Here, you can lay down your burdens, refresh your spirit, and pour out your heart to the One who knows and loves you completely.
"Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you."
— 1 Peter 5:7
Bringing a Group? We’re Here to Help.
Gathering others for an MBC Retreat creates space for renewal, connection, and time with Jesus—and we want to make it easy for you.
You’ll get access to planning tools, promo support, and a dedicated contact to walk with you every step of the way—plus, enjoy a little thank-you gift just for putting it all together!
