The Turning Point Retreat

The Turning Point Retreat is a three-night, boutique Christian women's retreat designed for those of us who have walked through loss and are ready-at last-to step into the next chapter with God.
In a quiet, upscale setting on the Central Coast, we gather no more than 12 women so every story is gently heard and every heart feels safe.
You may be 55 or older, six months or more beyond your loss, functioning on the outside yet quietly wondering, "Who am I now? Is it really okay to live again?" Together, we explore those questions through inspirational teaching, proof-of-eternity stories, Scripture, and unhurried conversations around the table.
You will not be asked to relive every detail of your grief. Instead, we focus on perspective-seeing your life and your loved one's homegoing in light of eternity-so guilt loosens its grip and hope begins to rise. Through guided reflection, times of prayer, and gentle community, you'll rediscover purpose, remember that your story is not over, and return home with renewed faith, deep peace, and a quiet excitement about what God still has for you.

CaliforniaStep One: Initial Reservation Fee: $500.00
Take the first courageous step with a nonrefundable deposit. This fee acts as your "gentle yes" to healing, holding your spot in our limited-size circle while you finish the application process and make travel plans. Submitting this reservation is a symbolic commitment, marking the pivot from prolonged grief toward your purpose-filled new season.
Step Two: Remaining Balance: $1,997.00
Due by the specified deadline before the retreat, this final payment completes your practical preparation. It covers all final details for your stay, symbolizing your readiness to move from merely surviving to truly living. Once this balance is received, you can arrive with a completely clear mind and open heart, ready to hear what God has to say about your identity and future.
Retreat Full Price
We keep each retreat intentionally small, with no more than twelve women, so your full-price registration secures a place in an intimate circle where you are truly seen and heard. Rather than "just a weekend away," this is a sacred, once-in-a-season opportunity to gain fresh perspective, release quiet guilt about moving forward, and hear God whisper hope over your next chapter. Many women tell us that the value of the retreat reaches far beyond the days we spend together, touching their families, friendships, and faith for years to come.
Initial Reservation Fee
Women often share that submitting this first payment felt like an act of courage-an acknowledgment that their season of deep grief is giving way to a season of renewed purpose. The remaining balance is not due right away, giving you time to prepare practically while your heart begins to prepare spiritually. Think of this fee as a promise between you and God: you will show up, and He will meet you there with hope and perspective.
Remaining Balance
Settling the balance often feels symbolic for our guests-it marks the moment they fully step into their decision to move from merely surviving to truly living again. Once this payment is received, all retreat accommodations, meals, teaching sessions, and materials are fully confirmed in your name. From there, your only task is to pack, pray, and come ready to hear what God wants to say about your future, your identity, and the beautiful life still before you.
Request Your Retreat Seat
Because our retreats are intentionally kept to an intimate group of no more than 12 women, we ask every guest to complete a short application. This helps us ensure that our time together aligns with where you are on your path—ready to move beyond the weight of loss and step into the renewed hope God has prepared for you.
