Stillwater Christian Retreat was formed by Jeff and Jan Hamburg of Dunn, NC. God called them to the mission’s field in April 2002...only 2 months after giving their hearts to Christ...10 days apart from each other. (Jan on Feb.7, 2002 and Jeff on Feb.17, 2002.) They felt they had wasted enough time in fulfillment of their own material wants and needs...and surrendered to God's call...to go to the mission field. They spent the next few months trying to figure out where it was God wanted them to go. Willing to pull up all stops...and follow the Lord's will for their life, feeling they had wasted enough time in material greed and pursuing the ways of the World...they prayed and waited for God to reveal where their mission field was to be. Through sermons, songs (with Christian lyrics), and the Holy Word of GOD (...the Bible...and scriptures) GOD revealed to Jan and Jeff that their mission field was to be HERE...in North Carolina. That they were to build a camp...to honor God....where people could come to learn about God's son, Jesus Christ...the risen Savior. (Psalm 46:10). Where people who were already Christians could come to renew their walk with the Lord, and have the Lord speak to them here....at Stillwater. (Psalm 23:2-3) In this world of busy, hustle, bustle, the cell phones, the pagers, the careers, that for a few days...Christians could come here...to retreat....and leave all that behind...and BE STILL, and Know that HE is GOD. Also, that people of all ages could come here, and learn about Jesus Christ, and give THEIR hearts to HIM here. And become Christians.
 
God has blessed our journey here at Stillwater and we have already seen many people give their hearts to Christ here on this ground...even before the lodges were started. The locals tell me there have been over 200 people baptized in this lake, and I know there will be many more. This is God's place...we were just called to be the builders, funders, and stewards of it while we are here on earth. This is our mission field...build it and they will come. That was God's promise to us...for you. We sincerely hope you will come and experience God's presence at Stillwater...we honor and serve the Lord here. Some of our primary beliefs are:

Jesus Christ did walk this earth as a man, and was crucified , died for OUR sins on the cross at Calvary, and rose from the dead , and ascended into heaven on the third day. Jesus Christ was born of a virgin...Mary. The Bible...is the absolute word of God. Nothing missing, nothing added, it was inspired by God, through men who got their vision and direct inspiration from God. It is the authority. God's plan of Salvation (Repenting of your sins, Putting your trust in Jesus Christ, Accepting HIM, and having faith in HIM...) is the only way to heaven. It is the only way...Not works, Not baptism alone, Not church membership. The Blood of Jesus Christ...is the only saving grace we have...the acceptance or the rejection of this...determines your final destination in eternity. (John 14:6) "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me." (John 6:47) Verily, Verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me hath everlasting life."

We hope to see all of you in the near future here at Stillwater, come and feel the presence of the Lord, come and fellowship, have fun, experience the beauty...but most of all...seek Him here...HE will reveal HIMSELF to you. This is HIS place.
