10 Reasons to Attend Chosen for His Glory — a By Design Ministries Retreat
By Kim Findlay
Do you need a break from the busyness and weight of ministry and life? What if you gave yourself the gift of stepping away from the noise to spend intentional time with God? We invite you to join us for the Chosen for His Glory Retreat with By Design Ministries — a sacred space created for women who desire deeper connection, spiritual renewal, and a fresh reminder of who they are in Christ.
Whether you are seeking rest, clarity, encouragement, or community, this retreat is an opportunity to encounter God in a powerful way and be reminded that you are uniquely chosen and designed for His glory.
Here are the top 10 reasons you won’t want to miss this year’s retreat!
1. Rest
The retreat offers a peaceful environment to slow down, reflect, worship, and listen for God’s voice.
2. Connect
Whether you’ve attended By Design events for years or are experiencing us for the first time, you’ll meet women who share your faith and desire to grow spiritually as they serve and lead others.
3. Renew
Step away from the busyness of everyday life and spend intentional time in God’s presence, allowing Him to refresh your spirit and strengthen your faith.
4. Rediscover
This retreat is designed to help you embrace who God says you are, reminding you that you are uniquely created and chosen for a purpose.
5. Clarify
Leave the retreat with a deeper understanding of your calling and how God is leading you in this season of life.
6. Encouragement
Receive encouragement and practical guidance that helps you walk boldly in the purpose God has for you.
7. Support
We’re not called to lead on our own, though it sometimes feels like we’re on an island all by ourselves. This space provides time for you to gather together in faith, share stories, and lift one another up.
8. Updates
Meet our new Executive Director, Kim Findlay, and hear about what’s to come for By Design Ministries.
9. Fun
Be ready to laugh and have fun together.
