Discover Your Value, Purpose & God’s Heart for You

Come away with us on Saturday, September 13th, to See Canyon Fruit Ranch for a mini-retreat.

This special day has been designed to refresh your mind, body, and soul. Begin the afternoon by enjoying a savory charcuterie board and a concert on the lawn. Explore the lush grounds and find a photo-booth inside a vintage bus, as well as an opportunity for a professional mini portrait session.

As the evening nears, settle in for a time of uplifting worship and inspiring stories and messages. Bring your own picnic dinner to enjoy.

“

This event was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced, and truly edified my life and brought me a new understanding. It taught me that I am not who my thoughts say I am, nor is my identity found in my circumstances. It reaffirmed to me who God says I am and finally helped me understand my purpose.

“

I have realized that even though I may have my flaws, God still loves me and has made me just how I should be, without shame or doubt about myself. I am going to start reading my Bible again and really get into what God is telling me.

“

I learned and believed that I was made for a reason and I am the only one who can do what God put me on earth to do and my impact on the world can only come from me and that’s why God created me and I have a purpose.
