  • Personal Items (toothpaste, shampoo, shower soap, etc…)
  • Blow dryer, if needed
  • Sweater and/or a jacket. The weather can be cool at night in the mountains. Layers are a girl’s best friend. (March avg. temps:  60/35  Oct. avg. temps:  74/41)
  • Comfy clothes, slippers / outdoor shoes – Several pairs of shoes in case it rains and you need dry shoes for inside

  • Notes for your Story (more info to follow)
  • Prepped food for meal (if you signed up to prepare something), well labeled, with ingredients and instructions
  • Earplugs 🙂
  • A watch (Casio or Timex are acceptable – convenient for keeping time without the hassle of phone)
  • Extra foldable sports chairs. These could be used for outside ministry time. 
  • Personal refillable water bottle. This will help with dishes and disposable cup usage.
  • Please recruit at least 2 prayer partners (or as many as the Lord says you need), that will stand in the gap for you. Ask them to start praying the week of the retreat (for your preparation and time management) and then to pray through to the Monday following the retreat. Especially ask them to pray for physical, emotional, and spiritual health and stamina.
  • You are welcome to have your prayer partners sign up to be a retreat intercessor. They will receive high level prayer needs via email throughout the weekend. If they would like to sign up, they can use this link.
  • Fasting and Prayer. We invite you to pray for your weekend and fast if you feel led. The retreat team will be fasting together on Tuesday prior to the retreat. We will give you more information at the Team Meeting on this. 

Please find our snack and sign up list here. 

*GF= Gluten Free

*DF= Dairy Free

**Don’t forget your SNACK! Check out Directions for Food Donations section for details.**

Please label EVERYTHING YOU BRING with your name, so if the kitchen team or snack team has questions, they know who to ask! If you are making something at home, please include the following information, in addition to your name:

– What the food is:  ground beef, lasagna, cookies, snack, etc. This gives kitchen and snack team directions on where items need to be stored. This helps us communicate with participants as well, some things are hard to tell what they are just by looking. 

– Allergy information (gluten-free, dairy-free, contains walnuts, etc.)

– Reheat/cooking instructions (if applicable)- temp to cook/reheat, time it takes, etc.

– Storage:  needs to be frozen/refrigerated/fine at room temp. Again, this helps our teams plan for storage as we are setting up.

If you are bringing store-bought stuff, please leave it in the package from the store so the kitchen team has all the above information.

If you or someone your know is interested in providing scholarship money for a participant please feel free to make a donation here

This is an incredible way to pour into a woman’s retreat experience.

Retreat Need to Knows

Preparing YOUR Story: 

  • Write/Type out your story prior to the retreat and practice telling it
  • Partners (4-5 minutes max); Not Partners (2-3 minutes max)
  • Remember we are all familiar with betrayal and the loss of trust in some relationship, and we have all received healing and restoration from the Father. This is the heart of the story you want to communicate.

Please take the time to reach out to your buddy at least one time prior to the retreat. Send them an email first inviting them to a phone call. Connecting by phone is ideal, but we want them to have the ability to connect in a way that feels safe. The purpose of this connection is to help combat the participant’s fear of not knowing anyone, to answer questions, and to help them feel welcomed. You may be working with your buddy during the retreat, so please do not hesitate to ask them what you can be praying for as we all prepare. 

  • Please share those prayer requests with the Intercession Team via email. Please send to the Lead Intercessor, Toni at broylesb@bellsouth.net
  • Please also ensure that they have received their retreat emails and that they do not have any questions. Any questions that might arise please direct to Carrie Dodge at retreat@hoperedefined.org. Most retreat information is sent 30 days pre-retreat.
  • Please communicate any retreat logistics or special considerations they might need to Carrie. Be sure to ask them about food allergies or needs for sleeping comfortably.
  • If your buddy is traveling, they will need to send their itinerary to the Retreat Coordinator,  so that we are aware of their arrival/departure. We are offering ground transportation to those who arrive during a certain window of time. If they are not able to arrive during the window of time, then ground transportation will be their responsibility. Uber is an option from the airport to the Wayfloy office. Please remind them to send their travel dates if they have not already. 

We have laid out the things that are essential in building a healthy functioning ministry team. Please review our Retreat Team Values & Protocols 

Redeemed Hope Ministry Values & Protocols 

You have these prayers in your Team Member packet but we want to make sure you can find them if you need them.

A part of what we get to do at this retreat is offer validation AND freedom. Deliverance is the action of being rescued and set free. 

Here is our teaching on this topic for our retreat team.  Protocols for Deliverance Ministry 

Discover Empowerment for the Betrayal Journey

Healthy boundaries are an essential part of the healing process.  Our Boundaries course is uniquely designed to give you real-time answers to your questions as you work through setting and sticking to your boundaries in daily life.

Are you struggling with feelings of betrayal and hopelessness?

Hope Redefined offers a 10-week Finding Hope Online Support and Study Group that offers participants an opportunity to overcome the devastation of betrayal. Participants will work through Hope Redefined’s Finding Hope workbook, which will help you better understand your pain and lead you to a place of healing.

Reflection, clarity, and courage

A Values workshop

Discover your inner strength and reclaim your values by reflecting and clarifying what is important to you, then step out with the courage to live by them daily.
