Honk! Caring for One Another Through Life’s Firestorms

However you connect with God, yourself, and others, there's a place for you at this retreat!

Explore our wide offerings of breakout sessions and activities available for you this weekend.

God created geese with the ability to migrate distances of over 3000 miles because He gave them strong wings and muscles, but that wasn’t enough. He also gave them instincts to fly in a V-formation, the ability to care for each other, to work together, stick together, honk a word of encouragement, and a host of other skills that make their journey possible! We’re going to be learning from the geese as we look together at the “One Anothers” of Scripture and how they help us to navigate life’s firestorms.

Joy in the Heart of Homemaking

Joy in the Heart of Homemaking will be a time of encouragement toward a biblical view of womanhood and finding contentment and fulfillment in their roles as wives and mothers. Together, we will explore how God meets us in the everyday rhythms of home, cultivating joy not from perfection or productivity, but from faithfulness, purpose, and a heart anchored in God and His word. This class is an invitation to find our purpose and meaning in the sacred and eternal work of homemaking.

Your Body is God's Gift

Every woman we know has at some point felt shame about their body. Body shame is the belief that somehow your body is bad. It could be what you see in the mirror or what no one sees from the outside - infertility, hormone imbalance, an autoimmune disorder, or a chronic illness. In this session, we will dig into some of our insecurities around our bodies and learn to hold fast to what the Bible says about this "good gift".

unmasking the false self

This breakout session offers my honest testimony of God's grace through sexual brokenness, confession, and healing. Together, I hope to unmask areas where we may be living from a false identity through self-reflection. Most importantly, to then be encouraged with biblical truth about who we are in Christ & rest in that freedom. I don’t come to you as a teacher, but as a fellow sister humbly meeting Christ at the foot of the Cross.

Praying the Psalms: Using Scripture to Shape Your Prayers

In this session, we will study the model of prayer laid out for us in David’s Psalms. Together, we will see how Scripture teaches us to pray honestly and faithfully in every season of life. We will also practice turning Scripture into prayer by using the words God has already given us. Participants will leave with simple, practical ways to pray the Psalms in personal prayer and daily life.
