“The weight of life is heavy, but Jesus calls us to lay it at His feet. I didn’t know how. The Refresh Retreat didn’t erase any of those experiences I held so tightly; but in that week, God restored, refreshed, and healed my heart. I am forever grateful for Lanissa providing us an uplifting space to grow, dream, and rest, for the Truths and encouragement they led us with daily- the list is truly endless. God moved and FREEDOM feels so so good! .”

"This retreat was a safe space for us to dream and share those dreams with each other, to cry and share our struggles, to freely and fully be our authentic selves. God showed up for each of us. I still can't get over the fact we arrived as strangers and left as sisters. I knew friendships would be formed here, but the depth of love and connection I feel for each woman is beyond what I had imagined.

I could not ever thank you all enough."

"This retreat was so incredibly special and so Holy Spirit filled. At so many moments throughout the week, I felt the nudge of the Holy Spirit like, “Pay attention to this moment, because this is a special, holy time”. And it was just that. It was such an intentional time to be encouraged, poured into, and to have FUN. As an introvert, I never once felt awkward or uncomfortable. I immediately felt welcomed & “at home”. I came away feeling equipped & lighter to move forward boldly in where God is calling me."

“This might be fun" turned out to be the biggest understatement of my life. The restored hope and freedom I found was well beyond ANYTHING I imagined. This was the most pure, beautiful, freeing, eye-opening experience of my life. Truly. I can breathe again and feel true peace knowing God goes before me. I no longer feel anxious or rushed through life. It was truly magical."
