“The psyches and souls of women also have their own cycles and seasons of doing and solitude, running and staying, being involved and being removed, questing and resting, creating and incubating, being of the world and returning to the soul-place.”

-Clarissa Pinkola Estés

During this inspiring weekend retreat titled “Her story, Our story: Lessons From the Book of Ruth,” Cassie will focus on the dynamic story of Ruth. Guests will explore the feminine experience in the Old Testament and how it resonates with women today. We will take a deep dive into the legacy of women who came before us, reflecting on our shared history and how it empowers us to be the women we are. Join us for this transformative weekend—come, you are welcome!

• In-depth spiritual presentations led by this year's Women’s Weekend speaker, Cassie Carroll.
