"As a pastor and a leader in a human services ministry I really appreciated the ability to step out of leadership and be a participant. I went to the retreat feeling completely drained with nothing left to give to the people I serve. I came away refreshed, and I had a plan for creating refreshing times in my daily life and for taking better care of the only body I will ever have.

"It made me want to take a look at my current relationships to figure out which ones are worth saving or which one I need to cut off . I really enjoyed meeting the people and making that connection with them."

"I was convinced my relationship with my mother was destroyed. We had no hope of reconcilliation. This one weekend did more for us than possibly years of counceling could have repaid. Thank You SOOOOOO Much for giving us hope and starting us down that path to total healing. I'm excited to have mama back! I'm also excited to look forward to the future and creating cherished memories with her.

"I have grown so many new friendships and it has opened my eyes that there are great people who don't view me as others in my life have perceived me to be. I feel stronger, encouraged and determined to take new steps in my life. I am starting to believe the truth about who I am and letting go of all of the lies. It was a life-changing experience!"

"I have tools to help me break down the barriers and walls protecting my heart to allow a safe man in my life. To be the real me with flaws exposed, and to build a solid intimate relationship. I now have tools to improve my health and love for myself."
