“There is one word that sums up the retreat – Embrace. Surrounded by old growth forest, a wonderful group of women, held in song by the talented Lauri Jones, and embraced by Rev Christine’s magnificent presence, intuition and guidance. I am leaving our time here with renewed insight, inspiration, gratitude and love. I am so grateful!” Maria D.
Our Wisdom of the Heart Women’s Retreat was truly a celebration of the Spirit. Lauri Jones blessed us with her amazing voice, original music and united us in harmony. The beautiful forest at Alton Collins Retreat Center provided a sacred backdrop as we came together in love. We made wonderful joyful connections!
We talked and shared, laughed and danced and even shed a tear or two. We left uplifted, renewed, reconnected and recommitted to our spiritual practice.
Here’s what the retreat sisters had to say:
“I always value my time at the Women’s Retreat! It is truly life changing, heart opening, deeply connecting, and set in this gorgeous slice of heaven at Alton Collins. I am so grateful.”
“I felt heard and cared for. The music was inspiring and joyful.”
“I so appreciate the space where worldly distractions are limited, where contemplation is encouraged, where my contributions are affirmed. I am worthy just because I am.”
“I came to the retreat not knowing anyone and left with 15 new friends. Grateful for the experience. Can’t wait to do it again.”
“The sense of safety in this community allowed me to ask for help in sorting out a deeper understanding of my blocks. I appreciate the space for everyone to share so we can learn from one another.”
“I love the balance of connecting with other women, music and quiet time with the forest as a backdrop.”
“I really value the balance of inner reflections and outer witnessing. I celebrate the music, song and dance – a true expression of body, mind and spirit.”
“I came away from this retreat understanding myself and my life and have a deeper connection with spirit. The power of prayer helps me surrender and let God!”
“I am so grateful for the opportunity to get out in nature, I so love the energy of the forest. I am grateful for the sharing and uplifting each other.”

Our Wisdom of the Heart retreat was another wonderful experience of joyful connections. We arrived a bit weary, rattled and stressed from our busy lives. And we left uplifted, renewed, and realigned with the presence of love.
Here is some of what the retreat sisters shared:
–The retreat gave me a chance to look at what is really going on in my life. I received prayers and tools that I can use everyday to further open myself up to the gifts the Divine has already made available to me.
–As a new person to the group, I was amazed at the immediate acceptance and welcome into this amazing circle of women.
–The prayer night affected me profoundly. There was a powerful presence that surrounded us.
–Every day was filled with wisdom and tools to take home. And the music was awesome!
–Big love to Lauri for bringing such heartfelt, spiritual musical beauty to our experience.
–First time attendee and I will return. Rev Christine is an excellent facilitator responding to our needs.
–I always appreciate the flow of practices, the opportunities for sharing, and the balance of downtime. I do not have many opportunities to step out of my life to be supported in this deep work and I am so grateful that you continue to offer this transformative time.
–Each retreat has taken me deeper in finding the “real” me. The support of my “sisters’ is beyond anything I can imagine.
–I loved the whole retreat! I arrived rattled from the noise and clutter and found peace.
–Spending time in an old growth forest with heart-centered women led by Rev Christine is a gift for your soul.
