Phoebe Needles Center Mission Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Phoebe Needles Retreat and Conference Center is a non-profit educational facility for use by church, education, business and community service agencies. The Center is owned and operated by the Episcopal Diocese of Southwestern Virginia. A tranquil valley view enhances the setting and separates the retreat from the hectic pace of everyday life.
Conferences are available for stimulating discussion and continuing education.
