The Texas Christian Ashram (TCA) invites you to join us! Come and discover the love, joy, peace, and compassion waiting for you. Reconnect with God, others, and yourself when you come to this 6-day inter-generational retreat held every July at the Scottsville Camp and Conference Center near Scottsville, Texas. not far from the Louisiana border.
We offers activities and dedicated programs for all ages. The youth enjoy worship and the Word of God while playing elaborate games fun for everyone. The college and career program integrates with both the adult and youth programs to meet their needs. The adult program incorporates teaching, worship, small group activities, and rest. Our goal is to focus on Jesus and each other.
Unique to TCA is the Blue Bell ice cream social each night where games are played, and ice cream is eaten.

Bible Teacher
Rev. Brian Shimer, M Div, became involved in the Christian Ashram movement first at the California Winter Ashram in 1981. The movement began to work on his life through the leadership of Mary Webster, who had traveled with Brother Stanley all over the world. Mary Webster was a marvel and wanted Brian and his fiancé to marry while at camp! "Love is too precious to wait," she said. Brian and Karen have been married 39 years and have four grown daughters and five grandchildren. A pastoral counselor and storyteller, Brian has spoken at Christian Ashrams in the USA and Canada over the last 30 years, serves on the UCAI Board of Directors and is director of the California Winter Ashram.
