Vaana Vaasal Retreat Center

Tucked away near the foothills of Yercaud in the Shervaroyan Hills, just 40 km from Salem, the Bethel Vaana Vaasal Retreat Center is a sanctuary for rest, reflection, and renewal.

A Sanctuary of Peace in the Hills

Where Serenity Meets Spiritual Renewal

At the heart of the campus stands the beautiful chapel, Christ the Servant King, inviting visitors into moments of prayer and stillness. The surroundings are filled with the songs of birds, the fragrance of fresh air, and the gentle whisper of the breeze—a setting that makes one feel truly close to God.

A special highlight is Calvary Santhya, a small rock hill crowned with a great cross. Its natural amphitheatre setting provides the perfect space for quiet reflection, group gatherings, or prayer under the open sky.
