Register and apply for the She Found Joy Retreat happening in Asheville, NC from August 18-21, 2023 at shefoundjoy.com/retreat.

Before God was Creator, He was Father. Since the beginning of time, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit have existed in perfect love together. God's heart in creating mankind was to share His goodness and love and create a family that would put His glory on display for the whole world. Ephesians 2:18-19 tells us that through Jesus we all have access by one Spirit to the Father. Therefore, we are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God. The finished work of Jesus made it possible for you and I to join the family of God — and how we fellowship and interact with one another matters. Join Lauren and Rochelle for a new series on how we can all be more loving members of the family of God. She Found Joy Retreat Update! We have a new application deadline of May 31, 2023. This is a small retreat with spaces for under 10 women (not counting the speakers). Apply today at shefoundjoy.com/retreat to reserve your spot and be considered for this life-changing
