In order to make good use of its facilities and serve the Church, LTS will rent its dormitories for use by any legitimate church group or church-related individual. These facilities can be used by groups for retreats, silent mediation, training sessions or seminars. Applications for rental should be submitted by letter, and the application must include the dates, times, purpose, facilities to be used, the number of people attending and the person in charge, as well as a stamped, self-addressed return envelope. Applications will only be accepted for one year or less in advance. Verbal contact will not be considered a formal application. First rights for use of the facilities belong to the seminary.

Check-in time is 3:00p.m.. The leader of the group should first come to the seminary office to register, and then receive room keys and other necessary items from the seminary's Retreat Assistant. On the day of departure, all keys and other items borrowed from the seminary should be returned to the Retreat Assistant between 11:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m.. The group or individual must depart by 12:00p.m.. In addition to the payments for room and board, a deposit of $1000 will need to be made to the seminary at the time of registration.
