Meet the Directors

The co-directors of the Sabbath House, Jim Strickland and Rachel Lackey, are both ordained clergy and have a combined 65 years of experience in parish ministry and pastoral care and counseling.

The Sabbath House is a non-profit organization established in 1999. The board of directors is made up of clergy and lay people who are committed to the practice of Sabbath. Our mission is to provide a place where persons can experience Sabbath.

Board of Directors:

Tom Conley Kaye Carmichael Bob Moon Terry Hanna
John Day Lisa Shirley Dallas Stallings Lamar Barden
Page Fulgham Brian Baskette Tim Shirley Donna Mote

The Sabbath House is a retreat house secluded in the Great Smoky Mountains of western North Carolina. We offer the opportunity for guests to rediscover the natural rhythm of life - to escape the hectic pace of their everyday lives and come away to a quiet place to rest.

We believe that the Sabbath principal is the foundation of spiritual, emotional, and physical health. Those who have the opportunity to refresh body, mind, and soul are able to be more effective in their personal, family, and vocational lives.
