Restoring The Gift Fall Retreat 2024
What a joy it has been for us to join together with other married couples and have a front row seat to what God is doing in their lives and marriages!
Participants are challenged to examine their wounds, face their fears, and “let go“ of things that were hindering their relationship with their spouse.
Here’s what past participants said about what they valued…
~ “Excellent material and presentations. Individual stories that were shared and the vulnerability of the leaders.”
~ “Time, tranquility, connecting with others, being open to God.”
~ “Time outside, being loved on, and prayed for, resources for later.”
~ “God centered focus and transparency of the leaders.”
~ “Jesus’s presence here.”
~ “The space to explore my weaknessses, challenge my next days with new tactics.”
~ “The openness of the leadership team and their willingness to personally connect with us as individuals and as couples.”
~ “Everyone being real about where they were and are currently.”
~ “Time between sessions to walk and talk.”
~ “Time spent together in group, but more so, time I was able to spend with my wife and Jesus. Strengthening my faith in both my marriage and our God.”
