It didn't take our team too many days before we began to ask questions...When will we do next year's retreat? What will that look like? What will we keep the same? What will we add or change?
Over the next several months, we prayed and met and chatted and tuned in and planned and connected and e-mailed and texted and messaged and ULTIMATELY came up with what we hope will be the absolute best weekend that we could put together for you as adoptive mamas...
This year's retreat will be centered around the principle of being "Intentional" and will focus on Hebrews 12: 1-2: let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
Our team prays that this retreat will refresh, renew, and revive you as well as equip you to go back to your most precious ministry...your family.
Registration will be THIS FRIDAY, October 24th, and will begin at 6:00 p.m. Central Standard Time. At that time, there will be a blog post right here that will contain a PayPal button with a direct link for you to purchase your ticket. Set your alarm! You won't want to miss your opportunity to get your ticket!
Your Joy in the Journey Retreat Ticket is your fast pass to all things at the retreat. This year's retreat will feature phenomenal main session and breakout session speakers, an invaluable adult adoptee panel, a genuine worship experience, two mom's support groups, five meals, the BEST vendor shopping (with all sales benefiting adoption in some form), all the coffee you've ever dreamed of, recreation and relaxation times, and friendships that cross all borders.
The retreat will start at 3:30 p.m. on Friday, March 27th, 2015 for check-in and vendor shopping and will conclude at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, March 29th, 2015.
For registration we will simply need you to purchase a ticket. We'll send you information (including the retreat schedule) and ask for additional information after the first of the year. Some of the information we will need from you will include your break-out session preferences, roommate preferences (if you don't know anyone, we'll find awesome roommates for you!), and a picture of your family for our family slideshow (optional).
Thank you so much for allowing us to minister to you in this way. We are forever grateful to God for this ministry and to you for joining with us in this mission.
See you in March!
