RETREAT TESTIMONIES
"This was one of the best experiences of my entire life!!! It was empowering, enlightening, insightful, energizing and well-needed rest and spiritual filling. The experience was more than amazing. Thank you so much for you all's yes to God."
- ASHLEY K.
"This was the first retreat I’ve ever done. The Serenity Retreat lived up to its name. I don’t have the words to describe how powerful it was. It was AMAZING! I thoroughly enjoyed every part. I especially enjoyed the details in the decorating. The ladies put so much effort in the SMALLEST detail that maybe only a few people noticed but it meant so much to me. The team were so genuine and anointed. I came back home feeling refreshed and ready to get even closer to God, I loved every minute of this retreat. The venue, the sessions, the breaks, the parties (you ladies know how to party!), the tote bag (everything in it), but most importantly the women! Can’t wait for the next one." - JAZZ G.
"I came to the retreat alone and extremely nervous. I did not know what to expect and thought I’d end up being the odd man out the entire weekend - but to my surprise, I met so many amazing sisters and made lasting connections. Everyone was so welcoming. I left feeling reignited, more confident, and free. My passion for life was restored and I feel like I’ve gained a group of new sisters who I’ll get to do life with going forward! I came alone, but I didn’t leave feeling alone! 🙌🏽😩💕" - TAYLOR D.

STILL UNSURE? WHAT'S YOUR EXCUSE?
"It costs too much"
While there is some expense involved in attending the Serenity Retreat, the benefits outweigh the cost. When we say this experience is priceless, we mean it. From every detail to the connections to the love and presence of God, it will be well worth the investment you make into yourself.
"It's too far away."
The 2025 Serenity Retreat is intentionally hosted in a more remote place to make it easier for you to relax and unwind. If distance poses a problem, consider carpooling. Check our connect wall below and meet other amazing women who will be joining us from across the country.
"I won't know anyone."
We get it, going away for a retreat with a group of strangers can be daunting, but here's the thing: We are all family! We come from different backgrounds, yes. We are different ages, yes. We are into different things, yes. However, what we have in common far outweighs our differences. Sure, come by yourself but just know, you are going to leave the retreat, with new sisters and connections that will last a lifetime. (It happens every year!)
"I am too old/young."
No you're not! Our retreats are available for all ages and backgrounds. We truly have something for everyone!
"It won't be fun."
Ha! Girl, you haven't been to a party until you have been to a Saved in the City party! We have a great time! We laugh, dance, cry and have an all-around amazing experience. Imagine taking a trip with your best girlfriends and cousins (that's us!)
"I don't need a retreat."
Everyone can use a retreat. There is always more to learn and experience. You will gain so much by intentionally taking some time away from your normal pace of life for spiritual growth and personal reflection. Girl, you so need this!
There are a number of excuses that can be offered up for why you should not attend. Some may be justifiable, but often times, the main obstacle is fear. Don't allow fear of something new stop you from attending. Trust us when we say, you are going to love it!
