BECOMING: A Testimony Building Retreat

God Is Not Finished With You Yet.

Queens Arise March 2025

Own your journey.

Honor your healing.

Unleash your voice.

"They triumphed over him by the blood of

the Lamb and by the word of their testimony."

– Revelation 12:11

Every woman has a story—one marked by courage, grace, growth, and God’s relentless love. Whether you're walking through a season of celebration, transition, or restoration, one truth remains: God is not finished with you yet.

BECOMING: A Testimony Building Retreat is a sacred, Christ-centered experience for women ready to reflect deeply, release what no longer serves them, and rise boldly into the fullness of who God created them to be.

This retreat isn’t about fixing yourself—it’s about coming home to yourself. It’s about recognizing God’s presence in every chapter, His power in your process, and His purpose in your BECOMING.

Colorado Springs, CO | August 15 & 16, 2025

Friday 5:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.

Saturday 8:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.

Becoming: A Testimony Building Retreat

What You Will Experience

✨ Freedom from fear, shame, and rejection

✨ Identify and overcome limiting beliefs through biblical truth

✨ Experience inner healing in a Christ-centered, supportive environment

✨ Learn to share your testimony with clarity and boldness

This is your time to rise, Queen. Let your story shine for His glory.

“He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted and to proclaim that captives will be released and prisoners will be freed... to give them beauty for ashes, joy instead of mourning, praise instead of despair.”

– Isaiah 61:1–3 (NLT)

Who Is This Retreat For?

✨ Women seeking to reconnect with God and reclaim their voice.

✨ Women ready to honor their healing journey and embrace transformation.

✨ Women desiring to step into their God-given identity with clarity and confidence.

✨ Women who want to share their testimony with boldness and grace.

Together, we’ll create sacred space to reconnect with God, ourselves, and each other—through worship, guided reflection, real conversations, and moments of Spirit-led stillness. You’ll be reminded that your story is not a setback—it’s a setup. A testimony in motion. A message the world needs to hear.

Queens Arise.

This is your invitation to rise with purpose, live with clarity, and speak with authority. Whether you're rebuilding, realigning, or simply ready for more—you belong here.

BECOMING is not just a retreat.

It’s a reclamation, of Your Story, of Your Strength, and of Your Voice.

“Being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”

– Philippians 1:6 (NIV)

"For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for us long ago."

– Ephesians 2:10 (NLT)
