What do other moms have to say....
"I have never left a retreat feeling disappointed! I have loved that every retreat has been Christ centered and brings glory to God. I leave every year encouraged in my faith walk and in my homeschool journey. The speakers, fellowship and food have always been amazing. It's great to be able to plug into a local homeschool retreat and not be financially burdened to attend or stretched to find child care as it's only one day. The retreat offers a great encouragement to me to finish the school year strong and leaves me feeling equipped for the years ahead!" ~Sarah H.
"The Refresh Retreat is an event I look forward to all year! The timing is perfect, and the title so fitting--by May, I am weary, discouraged, and disorganized. It is a breath of fresh air to worship and connect with other homeschooling moms, who share the same struggles. The speakers are full of wisdom, knowledge, and experience. There is always some humor mixed in, too! I truly leave feeling "refreshed" and much closer to my Heavenly Father with new ideas to implement in my home school." ~Susan G.
"Last year's retreat theme was "Joy in My Home(schooling)" and it was a joy-filled experience of fellowship, food, worship, and knowledge and wisdom imparted on us all! It honored God, was organized, objective, and inspiring! I'm so thankful for the experience and I look forward to what this year's retreat brings!" --Olivia T.
"2019's Joy in My Homeschooling Conference was so amazing! I was blessed to glean knowledge and wisdom from other homeschooling moms! The speakers and topics were just what I needed to hear! I also enjoyed the small group time where I was able to connect to other homeschooling moms. I left feeling refreshed, supported, and encouraged by other moms!"

“As a homeschool mom you are given the challenge of instilling Christian values and principles every day, and every situation. We are to be an example of Christ moment by moment. I fall, fail, and freak out pretty much daily. These retreats help put a soothing balm on my weary wounds. They help remind me of my Savior and to look to Him. I can do all things in Him who gives me strength.” --Renee C.
"This will be my 3rd year attending Refresh Retreat, and I wouldn't miss it. Being able to take a day for myself to rejuvenate with other moms helps brings wind back to my sail. No matter how many years I've homeschooled, having support and encouragement always helps me to continue to push through. I have 5 children, only 1 is in elementary school. So having 4 teens and wanting them to be prepared for college or trade school is quite daunting. Thankful for this group of Christian women that share their experience and knowledge to help me be a mom of encouragement and guide to my children as they quickly become young adults." --Lisa H.
"This retreat is such an encouragement. Each year I feel like I leave with a second wind to live out the homeschooling lifestyle that God has called me to. I love all the little details that are poured into this event to pamper, to refresh, and to spur each mother on with God's Word. Last year, I sat in the back row and was brought to tears by how full the room was...all like-minded women seeking to grow their children in the ways of our Lord. We are not alone! This is a day that you do not want to miss." --Charlie F.
"I always look forward to the Refresh Retreat! I jumped into homeschooling at the high school level and felt very overwhelmed and alone. This retreat showed me that I was not alone. I always come away with information and opportunities that I wouldn't have learned otherwise! There is something for every mom no matter what grade level you are homeschooling. I always leave the retreat refreshed and encouraged!" --Kim H.
