"Obedience"

Rector:  JJ Colina

Verse: James 1:22-25

"But be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. Because if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man looking at his own face in a mirror. For he looks at himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But the one who looks intently into the perfect law of freedom and perseveres in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but one who does good works -this person will be blessed in what he does."

Weekend Song:

"Highlands (Song of Ascent)" by Hillsong United & Benjamin William Hastings

How real is your faith if it never moves you to action? James reminds us that when we only hear God's Word but don't live it out, we miss the freedom and blessing God intends.

Too often, we walk away from the mirror of His truth and forget what He has spoken into us. On this weekend, we'll be reminded that faith is not passive—it's active. True disciples of Jesus don't just listen... they obey.

Together, we’ll commit not only to hearing the Word of God but also to doing it so that our lives reflect Christ to those around us. As we live out His Word, we'll experience the blessing and freedom that comes with walking in obedience.

Personal Application: This weekend theme is not just for the candidates -it's for each of us serving. How are we personally living as doers of the Word in our preparation?

Team Commitment: Let's commit to serving not out of routine, but from a heart of obedience to Christ's call. Our actions speak louder than our words. 

Women’s Weekend #53

April 16-19, 2026

"Soul Focus"

Rector: Tammy Ayotte

Verse: Matthew 16:26

“What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?”

Weekend Song:

“Awake My Soul” by Hillsong Worship 

In a world pulling us in a hundred directions, our hearts desperately need a single, steady focus on Christ.

In Matthew 16:26, Jesus reminds us that the soul is the most precious part of who we are. As women in leadership, whether in ministry, in the workplace, or in our homes, we pour out, we run ahead of the pack, we give and give — and sometimes we risk doing all the “right” things or the people pleasing things - while losing touch of the deepest part of who we are in Him.

This weekend retreat will be about pausing long enough to let Jesus restore our soul-focus. It is about remembering that before we are leaders, mothers, aunts, sisters, coworkers, and friends, we are HIS beloved daughters.

My prayer is that women’s weekend #53 will provide an environment for a holy awakening of women’s souls. A time apart where hearts long dulled by busyness and daily battles are stirred back to life in Christ. A time and place where voices rise in worship and the women all over the campground rediscover joy, peace, and freedom…

That the environment we create becomes a place where you can breathe AND exhale, encounter Jesus in a fresh way, and leave renewed in both strength and clarity. A weekend of praise and prayer so that when you return to your families, churches, and workplaces, you lead from a place of wholeness, not depletion.

It would be my greatest honor if you would consider joining me on women’s weekend #53. There is a time commitment, but the rewards of serving are well worth it. If you cannot serve, then I humbly ask for your prayers and your covering over the weekend. Pray that God would go before us, that every detail would align with His Spirit, and that each woman who comes to this campground would encounter Him in a fresh and life-changing way.
