Closing the Gap Retreat
The BaeCay Experience
August 5–7, 2027 | Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center | National Harbor, Maryland
Limited to the first 75 married couples
What You Sow into Your Marriage Will Grow
At RNCC, we believe what you sow into matters. You plant time, prayers, and resources into the things you want to see grow.
Your marriage deserves that same kind of intentional investment.
Closing the Gap Marriage Retreat gives you three days at the Gaylord National Resort to step away from the demands of everyday life, reconnect with your spouse, and intentionally sow into the marriage God has given you.
The BaeCay Experience isn’t just about getting away, it’s about getting back to each other! Enjoy time to relax, reconnect, and grow together through powerful, practical teachings from Pastor & Lady Chapman. Return home more united, intentional, and in love!
Come to this luxury couples getaway expecting God to strengthen what’s already good and restore what’s grown distant.

MCM Retreat FAQs for Payment Plans
Can I receive a refund or transfer my registration if we are unable to attend?
Please note that all retreat deposits and payments are Non-Refundable and Non-Transferable. Due to financial commitments made on behalf of each registered couple, we are unable to issue refunds, credits, or transfer payments to another couple
Once I pick my payment plan, what will my draft date be?
Your monthly draft date is THE date that you set up your payment plan (this is not your “Initial Deposit” date) (ex: Set up Oct 3rd, next drafted payment date is Nov 3rd, Dec 3rd, etc…). If you choose the “every other month” plan, your draft date will be the date you set up your payment plan (ex: Oct 15th, Dec 15th, and Feb 15th)
Will I receive a monthly reminder email from Stripe on when my payment will be drafted?
Yes, Stripe will send a reminder email 15 days BEFORE payment is drafted.
What happens if we miss a Retreat payment?
To keep your retreat registration active, payments must remain current according to your selected payment plan. If you are unable to make a scheduled payment, please contact the Married Couples Ministry Team (couples@rncconline.org) 5-7 Calendar days BEFORE your drafted due date. If a retreat payment is missed and you are unable to make two (2) payments the next month, moving forward, your payment amount will increase. You will receive a new payment link with an increased price to complete your retreat payments by June 30th
How many payments can be missed? What happens to previous payments?
If two (2) scheduled payments are missed without prior communication with the MCM team (couples@rncconline.org), your registration will be canceled and your space will be released. All previously paid deposits and payments will be forfeited and remain non-refundable and non-transferable.
