Who we are
Arcadia is the result of years of training and experience. God has given each of our founders a heart for caring for people, but in very different and complementary ways. In our work with the church both locally and internationally, we have both seen and experienced the great need for God’s Body to care well for our workers and leaders. Too often, those on the front lines of ministry are isolated, neglected, or even abused by those who should be in a position to care for them.
Arcadia is part of God’s design that the Body care well for each of its members. Our focus is to support those on the frontlines, to care for those in desperate need, and to teach and train the Church in how to care so well for their workers, that Arcadia will no longer be needed.
Dr. Dana Anglund, DO
When I was in medical school, I used to think that if I could help to save a body, then someone else could help to save the soul. But God showed me that we are integrated whole beings made in His image. He has brought me around the world both to learn and to teach healing. Working in the church and in healing, God has shown me the importance of supporting those who are working, and those who are in a position of influence. Arcadia for me is the natural result of the training God has brought me through. My expertise and passion is maximizing health and healing in the body, soul, and spirit through the power of God’s Love.

I am a linguist, professor, writer, and prayer coordinator. I have served people in many different parts of the world through leadership roles in teacher training, international ministry support and cross-cultural courses and partnerships. Through these experiences, I have discovered my real heart passion is partnering with God to offer rest and reconnection in retreats that allow Him space to heal the soul as well as the body of weariness, grief, stress or burnout.
