Be Still: Dwelling Undistracted in His Presence
Saturday, June 7
9:00a - 1:30p
*Registration is open.
The deadline to register is May 30.
Being still involves deliberately setting aside the busyness that overwhelms our minds and hearts by silencing external distractions that compete for our attention—whether it's the constant notifications from our devices, the demands of work and family, or the myriad of thoughts racing through our minds. In stillness, we establish an environment that fosters listening, reflection, and experiencing the fullness of His presence. Dwelling undistracted allows us to engage our senses and open our hearts to deeper intimacy with the Father.

Beauty from Ashes: Releasing the Stain of Shame
Saturday, August 23
9:00a - 1:30p
*Registration opens June 1
As women we face situations that weigh us down with shame, regret, or despair. These moments can cloud our identity and affect our relationships with God and others. The idea of "Beauty from Ashes" is a powerful metaphor, suggesting that a deep beauty can arise from ashes when we find strength in being vulnerable with the Father.
Freedom from Captivity: Experiencing Wholeness After Trauma
Saturday, October 4
9:00a - 1:30p
*Registration opens August 23.
The journey to freedom from captivity, especially in the context of trauma, is a complex experience that involves not only physical freedom from constraints but also the profound process of healing and reclaiming our true identity. Trauma can appear in various forms—emotional, psychological, or physical—and often leaves us feeling fragmented, disoriented, and disconnected. Achieving wholeness after trauma requires an intimate connection with the Father to start reassembling those fragments of our identity that may have been shattered.
A Soul Restored: Journey from Hopelessness to Hope
Saturday, November 1
9:00a - 1:30p
*Registration opens September 30.
In the depths of despair, where shadows loom and the weight of the world feels insurmountable, the journey from hopelessness to hope begins with a single, powerful spark of resilience. The belief that even in the darkest times, hope can be found, nurtured, and ultimately, restored. This journey is not merely a transition; it is a profound metamorphosis that requires perspective, courage, and the willingness to embrace change with the help of the Father.
