Revive Us Again
Kevin Ingram, President of MCC
In the midst of our tumultuous world, getting away from all the stressors of life for a little bit can be refreshing, renewing and restoring. Start the get-away weekend with a specific focus on God and how He can not only refresh, renew and restore you, but can revive you to live a life of impact for Him!
4:30-5:15 Choice of Break-Out (4 topics)
He Restores My Soul
Anita Peterman, Manhattan
God’s deep desire is to renew, heal, and bring vitality to the inner life of every person—leading them toward wholeness and spiritual well-being. In this Bible study, we’ll explore three gospel accounts that show how Jesus restores those burdened by unbelief, despair, and personal failures. As He brings renewal, it ignites a personal revival within us and stirs a passion to share His transformative work with others.
Freedom in Forgiveness
Misty Durst, Morrowville
Any resentment, unforgiveness, bitterness and anger we are carrying separates us from God and his blessings. Whether it was the betrayal of a friend, abuse, family dynamics, church hurt or something else, God asks us to surrender this pain to Him. When we choose to forgive others as Christ has forgiven us, we are able to walk in true freedom with Him.
Friendships Through Each Season
Haley Archer, Lansing; and Pam Field, Linwood
This mother/daughter team explores how to find and cultivate Christian friendships in a variety of life stages. They will share personal stories and biblical wisdom on what Christ-centered friendships can look like—from singles, young motherhood, to the empty nest/retirement, and beyond. Women of all ages will be reminded of God’s faithfulness, even in seasons where friendships seem hard to come by.
Yet, I Will Worship
Jennifer Winters, Burlington
It’s easy to worship when life is going our way, when we are on the mountaintop, but what about those days in the valley? In this session we will look at how true worship isn’t dependent on our circumstances, but a reflection of our faith in a Creator who is always worthy of praise.

10:30-11:15 Choice of Break Out (4 topics)
Choosing Joy
Debbie Scroggs, Liberal
Sometimes life is messy. Who do I believe God is in the midst? Does He even care? Can I choose joy when the answers haven’t come yet? God isn’t threatened by our questions. He welcomes them. He meets us in our uncertainty and gently shows us how to trust Him and choose joy while we wait for answers.
Doing Life Together
Lisa Ingram, Brooke Kardulis, and Emme Porter, Manhattan
As Christians we are called to live in community, but how do you find and make those meaningful connections? True fellowship comes when believers prioritize spending regular quality time together for support and mentoring. We will share the practical steps we take for spiritual growth while walking beside one another through life.
Grief: An Invitation to a Deeper Life with God
Kelly Helms, Manhattan
No one will walk through life untouched by grief and loss. How do we understand the experience of grief? And how do we relate with God through the losses of life? Is it possible that grief could be an invitation to a deeper life with God?
Meet Me at the Well
Karrigan Dunstan, Manhattan
Jesus meets a woman in the midst of her shame in a place where she was often shamed. But because of her encounter with Him, this place of shame, became a place of salvation. A place of revival. Maybe He can turn our place that hurts us the most, into a place of healing.

12:30-1:15 Choice of Break Out Topic (4 options)
Let’s Go Girls! Leading with Grace & Grit
Kylie Shipley, Manhattan
Your communities, churches, and local organizations need YOU to step up and lead. Leadership is not a position, but an attitude. God has equipped you with a valuable skillset that allows you to make a difference right where you are. In this interactive workshop, you will discover what makes you uniquely YOU, cast a purposeful vision, and be empowered to lead with grace and grit!
Made to Thrive: Reclaiming Your Health, Identity, and Purpose in a Burned-Out World
Shayna Heideman, Corning
This isn’t just another wellness talk—it’s a wake-up call for the woman who looks strong on the outside but feels like she’s fading on the inside. Shayna will share how God used a nightmare, a diagnosis, and a total unraveling to bring her from body shame and religious performance to full restoration. Come learn what it means to heal from the inside out and finally start living the life you were made to thrive in.
Prayer: Where Revival Begins
Morgan Joseph, St. George
On our knees in God’s presence is where revival begins. In this interactive prayer workshop, you’ll learn different ways of praying on your own and together. Come, let us pray!
When I Can’t See You, God
Tammy Leis, Wichita
Are you overwhelmed battling a health issue, relationships, a wayward child, or something else? You are not alone. King Jehoshaphat knew he was surrounded and outnumbered when he prayed, “We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.” He couldn’t see God through the panic, but God saw him, and answered. We, too, can move from fear to faith, knowing God SEES us!
