Our Story
Living Stones Summit Trust operates a unique rural retreat in the hills above Christchurch. Our purpose is to provide an environment where lives can be restored, motivated, and trained. We believe in the power of hands-on work, community connection, and practical skill development.
Our facility offers a peaceful setting away from the city, where participants can focus on personal growth while learning valuable work and craft skills. Like living stones being shaped and fitted together, we help individuals become part of something greater than themselves.
