Why this retreat?
It’s safe to say that most of us have never experienced anything like 2020-21.
Our relationships have suffered, our joy has been depleted, and deep-seated wounds and old tapes seem to chronically remind us that we are broken.
Your suffering and all of the dry wilderness spaces of your heart have not gone unnoticed... and now, they don’t have to go uncared for either.
The Nothing is Wasted Retreat is a holy opportunity for you to co-labor with God to redeem your brokenness and heal your pain.
If you’re ready to:
regain your strength,
realign your emotions,
reactivate healthy thought patterns, and
revive your soul
The Nothing is Wasted Retreat is for you!
Let’s heal and recover together...
“Strengthen those who have tired hands, and encourage those who feel weak. Say to those with fearful hearts, be strong and do not fear… for the Lord your God will comfort and repair your broken heart… He will give you a beautiful crown in exchange for ashes. He will anoint you with gladness instead of sorrow, and will wrap you in victory, joy and praise instead of depression and sadness.” Isaiah 6:1-3
Whose Coming?
This is a women’s only retreat and will consist of 10 guests and 2 leaders (Amber Jaworsky and Sarah Hall). Though we will not micro-manage Covid, we would like to offer some considerations. This retreat is a shared space retreat, meaning you will share a bed with another guest, in light of this season we would like to encourage you to either be vaccinated(if that is something you’re comfortable with) or simply get tested(with negative results) prior to attending the retreat, in order that you ensure one another’s safety while we do this sacred work. This is a Christ led model but no matter where you find yourself, all are welcome.
Where is this Retreat?
This retreat is located approximately 30 minutes outside of Tucson, in the southeastern region of the Sonoran Desert. The retreat space sits right up against the Saguaro National Park. This space is set apart and truly embodies an enchantment unlike any other. It is the perfect spot for reflection and resetting, with natural springs on the property, rooftop patios, fire pits, outdoor dining, peaceful night skies and radiant sunsets and sunrises. You will want to fly into Tucson International Airport(TUS, 40 mins from lodging) or Phoenix International Airport (PHX, 1hr39mins from lodging) Make sure your flights are set to get in with enough time to arrive at retreat center between 5-7pm on August 16th. The retreat will end at 11am Friday August 20th, so schedule your flights accordingly from whichever airport you’ve chosen to fly into!
