Retrograde Ministries

Eastern Iowa as most places needs a place where people of all ages and genders can go to find hope, peace and life transformation. A place where a person can go and leave behind the cares and demands of everyday life and for a brief period of their lives focus on rebuilding and restarting their lives.

Early in 2014 a group of Pastors and Business men came together a desire to see a program developed that could do just that.

These men reached out to different programs and ministries and invited them to come in and start something. not making any headway in the fall of 2014 they invited a fellow by the name of Michael Evans to come out and help them get started with their own program. and thus Retrograde Ministries was started.

We have a beautiful Facility in Kalona. we can house 14 guys. We are starting out with a men's Program and will be building a women with children program in the near future. We are also working on some in home treatment options for all types of people.

Our program cost just $750 to get into. it last 6 months. for 3 months our students will spend all their time focused on studies and building their foundations. during the second three month they will be doing job training for 20 hours a week as well as taking class. during their final month we will help them find a an apartment & get a job. Then we will start the out patient part of the program that last six months. We have a strong community and students and grads are strongly encouraged to stay apart of the community. we have optional road trips, weekly support meetings, dinners & get together, community support days and our reaches.
