Mary Helan Vesenka, who grew up at Friendly Crossways, and her husband Keith Turner, left Hawaii in 1996 with their three children — James, Rebecca and Daniel — to take over this central Massachusetts retreat center upon the retirement of Mary Helan’s parents. A brief history of the Friendly Crossways Retreat Center is available here.

Wedding planners, musical, educational, peace & justice, healing, and religious retreat planners, etc, can reach Mary Helan at (978) 456-9386 or at info@friendlycrossways.com
