About Us
Stony Point Center is a year-round, 32-acre retreat facility for groups ranging from 8 to 180. Located in the scenic lower Hudson Valley, we are just 45 minutes northwest of NYC. We believe in the possibilities of change and that the arc of history is indeed bending toward justice. Groups come here to reflect, recharge, and reconnect; to plan, execute, and train; to create, commune, and collaborate.
Owned and operated by the Presbyterian Church (USA) for 75 years, Stony Point Center is committed to being a welcoming open space for people from all around the world working to make the world more just, loving, and kind. Groups, both secular and sacred, also come here to recharge, reset, and heal. We are ready to welcome you, too. Give us a call or drop us a note.
Salaam, shalom, peace.
Mission & Vision
Mission: Stony Point Center nurtures a place of inclusion and acceptance so guest groups can confront and transform the brokenness of our shared physical and spiritual world.
Vision: Stony Point Center strives to be the retreat center of choice for communities committed to justice and peace by convening, connecting, equipping, empowering, and inspiring excellence.
We are serve as a multi-faith retreat center owned by the Presbyterian Church (USA).
Stony Point Center strives to be a sanctuary for sacred work and the people doing it, open on four sides like Abraham’s tent, honored to receive and be received by angels of transformation from all walks of life. Our multi-faith retreat center aspires to be a place where living connections of solidarity are built, especially with and among those marginalized by mainstream religious or other institutions in the broader culture.
We are deeply committed to the work of dismantling institutional racism, eradicating systemic poverty, and revitalizing congregations/faith communities. Along with this are our intersectional priorities of addressing climate change, gender justice/heteropatriarchy, and militarism. SPC serves as the primary training center for members of the Presbyterian Church (USA) who continue to undertake this important work in their own congregations and communities at home.
