The Journey Ahead

The dates, location, days, and times in this guide show one live retreat example. Leaders may adapt the schedule, meals, breaks, fellowship, recreation, and setting to meet the needs of their group while keeping the six sessions in order and protecting time for private reflection, voluntary response, and closing.

Gathering Session

Saturday Morning Session Two: Walking in Surrender
Saturday Breakouts Session Three: Building the House / Becoming a Woman Rooted in Christ
Saturday Afternoon Session Four: Healing Through Surrender
Saturday Evening Session Five: Walking Together in Surrender
Sunday Morning Session Six: Living Purposefully

Leader Posture

This guide supports leaders; it is not a script that must be performed perfectly. Prepare prayerfully, stay attentive to the people in the room, and allow space for silence. Never pressure a participant to disclose, reconcile publicly, receive physical touch, or respond before they are ready. When a concern exceeds the scope of a retreat conversation, help the participant connect with appropriate pastoral, clinical, medical, or emergency support.
