Tending to Those Who Tend to Others: A Circle of Trust Retreat for Women of Color in Religious Leadership (Onsite – 2025)

Register for “Tending to Those Who Tend to Others: A Circle of Trust Retreat for Women of Color in Religious Leadership”

As women who embody various aspects of faith and spirituality, we are called to tend to everyone in our inner and outer circles. The question is, “Who is tending to us?  Who is tending to our souls?“ Please join us for a series of four retreats in which you are allowed to press “pause.”  This will be where you can replenish, refresh, and renew yourself.  We hope this offering will be a retreat where you can tend to your spirit.

This registration is for the fourth and final onsite retreat at at the Villa Maria Del Mar Retreat Center located in Santa Cruz, CA right on the beach.

The suggested amount for the retreat is $1160, but we are open to you paying whatever is within your capacity, and feels like a gift for you and for us (between $150-1160).
