SAVE THE DATE!

Dear Friends,

Mark your calendars for a weekend of renewal, connection, and spiritual refreshment! We’re thrilled to invite you to the 2025 Women’s Retreat — a time to awaken your senses, revive your spirit, and reconnect with God and one another.

🗓️ Retreat Dates: September 26–28, 2025
📍 Location: Franciscan Retreat Center, Colorado Springs
🎙️ Keynote Speaker: Rev. Joy Engelsman
💡 Theme: The Sensible Woman

This year’s retreat theme, “The Sensible Woman,” invites us to explore the full sensory experience of faith and life—seeing, hearing, feeling, tasting, and speaking with intention and grace. Through powerful teaching, guided devotionals, and soul-refreshing conversations, we’ll explore what it means to live fully alive in Christ—even in seasons when we may feel unseen, unheard, or disconnected.

Meet Our Speaker:
Rev. Joy Engelsman brings deep wisdom and a global perspective, having spent her early years in Nigeria and decades in ministry leadership. With experience as a pastor, chaplain, coach, and conference speaker, Joy now serves as a missionary with Youth for Christ International and is a new minister member of Denver Presbytery. She’s passionate about nurturing healthy leaders and cultivating authentic faith in community.
