Join us for Captivating this October!

Beloved, this is not a retreat about “how to behave and become the perfect woman.” It is a four-day journey into the recovery of our hearts and seeing the truth of our identity and how God sees us. If we are going to know who we truly are as women and find a life worth living, we must first recover what has been lost. We must get our hearts back. 

When: 

• Thursday, Oct. 16th - Sunday, Oct. 19th, 2025

• Arrival at 4 p.m. on Thursday. The event will end at 12 p.m. on Sunday.

Where:

• The River Lodge, a gorgeous, cozy cabin, in Aitkin, Minnesota. It's about a 2-hour drive from the Minneapolis-St. Paul area.

• If you are flying in from out of state, fly into the MSP Airport and we can arrange carpooling with other attendees.

Registration: 

• Cost: $400 or $300 (based upon which bed option you choose), payable via Venmo to Amy at @Amy-Johnson-376 (non-refundable within 30 days of the event)

• Complete the registration form below (note: registration is not final until the form and payment have both been received)

• Cost includes lodging, meals (dinner on 10/16 through lunch on 10/19), snacks/beverages, and all event materials

Sleeping Arrangements:

•  There will be a variety of sleeping options available, based on your preference and budget. $400 for your own bed or $300 for a shared bed with a friend. These rooms will be available for those who sign up first and pay for these rooms. We've seen and experienced how God works in every room assignment!

What to Expect:

• There will be several sessions each day, along with self-reflection questions for your personal time. There are no assigned group discussions throughout the weekend as this time is meant to be between you and Jesus! 

• To allow the opportunity for self-reflection, there will be several designated time periods of mandatory silence.

• The weekend will have periods of free time for adventure, refreshment, camaraderie, or whatever your soul needs. Feel free to bring anything else you may want during this time.

• This event is designed to be experienced off-grid and is strongly encouraged that you unplug from phones. 

After registering and payment, you'll receive an email confirming your spot!  

Looking forward to a fun, deep, and powerful weekend alongside you,

Amy, Hillary, Hannah, and Kali
