*Personality Assessments are from CLASS. There is a small fee associated with my cost for this assessment. The survey should be distributed to the participants at least one week ahead of the retreat.

*The Spiritual Gift Assessment is Lifeway’s online “Spiritual Gift Survey”. It should also be completed prior to the retreat

*Most Sessions are about 45 minutes in length. They are interactive and high impact!

*Optional Q&A may be held at the end of the retreat for ladies to ask questions for better clarification
