HEALING FOR THE NATIONS INC

What HEALING FOR THE NATIONS INC does

Healing for the Nations Inc is a 501(c)(3) Christian non-profit ministry founded in 1993 by Steve and Rujon Morrison, headquartered in Marietta, Georgia. The organization's flagship offering is The Intensive Retreat, a week-long residential program capped at 8-10 participants per session, designed to address spiritual stagnation, codependency, relationship struggles, and burnout among Christian pastors, missionaries, and individuals. Each participant is supported by an international prayer team of 300+ intercessors throughout the retreat week, and program materials are translated into nine languages. The ministry reports impact across more than 70 nations since its founding, with trained international teams conducting retreats and conferences in England, Holland, France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Singapore, India, and Hong Kong.

The business model combines three revenue streams: intensive retreat registration fees ($1,145 base, plus lodging and transportation surcharges), a catalog of educational product sales (books, CDs, DVDs priced $10-$49) distributed through an e-commerce storefront, and recurring monthly donations through the HFN Partners program plus one-time donations eligible for tax-deductible charitable contributions. The go-to-market is primarily referral-driven, with admissions generated through pastors, counselors, and partner organizations including YWAM, Church of England, and Search Resources. Prospective retreat attendees must complete a questionnaire and be accepted before a $300 deposit secures placement. The underlying technology is minimal: a WordPress/WooCommerce-based website for information dissemination, registration, e-commerce, and PayPal payment processing. There is no proprietary technology, no enterprise software, and no AI capabilities. Operations are lean with approximately 10 employees and founder-led.

Direct peers

• Walk to Emmaus (Upper Room): Walk to Emmaus is a long-running ecumenical Christian retreat movement with weekend intensive experiences for spiritual renewal. Its faith-based retreat format, lay-led community model, and pastor-referral pipeline closely parallel HFN's Intensive Retreat.
• Rapha (formerly Rapha Hospitals): Rapha pioneered the Christian psychiatric and intensive treatment model from which HFN's founders emerged. It is the most directly comparable organization in faith-based clinical counseling and intensive care.
• Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation (CCEF): CCEF offers biblically-based counseling training, resources, and intensive ministry programs for pastors and individuals. Like HFN, it integrates scriptural principles with clinical counseling approaches and serves referral-driven Christian clientele.
• Cursillo Movement / National Cursillo Center: Cursillo is a worldwide Christian movement delivering multi-day intensive retreats focused on spiritual growth and discipleship. It is structurally similar to HFN's week-long intensive model targeting pastors and laypeople.
