Finding Purpose Today, a 1-day retreat offered in Bay Village, Ohio. This retreat provides a time for women to examine the gifts they offer the world and explore the roadblocks to finding their purpose through reflection, journaling and sharing.

In our busy lives, we miss the opportunity to find time to evaluate our lives.
Open your heart and mind as we explore how our past is only part of what shapes our future.
We are on the journey to become scholars of spirit and soul.
Consider joining us as we stretch forward and embrace the lives we have.
Blending nature, fellowship, solitude, contemplation, activities, and journaling, each retreat provides a way to bring grace and serenity to your life.
