A Mother's Rest Charitable Respite Foundation
A Mother's Rest specializes in coordinating therapeutic respite retreats for parents of children with extra needs. We support bio & adoptive moms, dads, and other family caregivers of children and adults with *extra needs*. Our small group bed and breakfast gatherings allow you to get true, recuperative rest to address physiological and mental fatigue. Come recenter and recharge with us.
Our home respite inn and support programs will be located in the Batesville/Afton area of Virginia. Nestled in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley and Virginia’s Wine Country, our respite inn will offer a scenic and inviting experience for year-round guests.

There are times in our lives where our pain, hurt, confusion and sorrows overwhelm us. We may feel alone as we walk through these valleys in our life, but God says, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you" (Hebrews 13:5). David tells us in Psalm 34:17-18, "The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."
Come find support and encouragement through a safe and confidential community as you experience the transforming work of God in your life.
