From a Dream to a Destiny
Selah Fellowship Inc. began as a quiet dream whispered around a kitchen table, rooted in reflection, and nurtured through a decade of compassionate service. Selah is a place where children and families can step away from the noise of life and find space to pause, heal, and grow.
Through early “pop-up” we provided small-scale, therapeutic camp experiences held in borrowed spaces. Blending creativity, emotional care, spiritual guidance with cognitive behavioral therapy, planting powerful seeds of hope, joy, and transformation in the lives of every child who participated.
But the dream didn’t stop there.
It was always meant to become something more, a permanent sanctuary, grounded in love, where individuals of all backgrounds could rediscover their strength, their story, and their sense of belonging.
Mission Statement
Selah Fellowship Inc. exists to create sacred spaces of rest, reflection, and restoration for individuals, families, and communities. Through nondenominational faith, based retreats, therapeutic camps, and holistic outreach programs, we provide spiritual, emotional, and physical support for those in need. Rooted in the power of “Selah” a holy pause, we empower people from all walks of life to reconnect with God, rediscover their purpose, and rebuild their lives in peace, community, and truth.
