Renewal Retreat 2025
When was the last time you had a full day - let alone a whole weekend - that felt calm and refreshing?
A weekend where you could rest without guilt? To think without interruption?
To let God speak without having to multitask Him?
If that question hits a little too close to home, I want to invite you to the Renewal Retreat. It’s happening October 16–19 in a beautiful lakehouse in central Arkansas. This is three nights of worship, rest, coaching, good food, and encouragement that goes beneath the surface with other women who get it.
No pressure. No performance. No pretending.
Just space to remember who you are and Who you belong to.
Whether you’re worn out from doing all the things or just longing for a reset, this weekend is for you.
And the best part? There are payment plans that make it really doable.
It’s time for rest, real connection, and a reset that actually sticks. Come join us!
