March 26, 2025 @ 5:00 pm - April 1, 2025 @ 7:00 pm

March 26 – April 2, 2025   

Registration opens October 1, 2024 
If you know you want to participate in this module, email Wendy to be put on a “first-notify” list in case general registration opens sooner.

Facilitators:  Caryn Young, Strengths-Finders coach
Joy Beless, Spiritual Director and Worship Leader
Wendy Wilson, Women’s Development Track – Exec Dir

Usually the hardest person to lead is . . . myself!  Has the woman in the mirror cultivated her own relationship with God in stillness and trust, recognizing the other voices that compete for her priorities? As we steward the gift of leadership and the impact of our leadership on others, we want to nurture a lifestyle that can resist busy-ness and capitulation as opportunities press hard on us for a response. This is where too many leaders compromise spiritual vitality and their ability to lead others well. With both guided and private space to sit with the Lord and to catch up with your soul, we will enjoy a variety of practices that invite us to protect essential margin and quiet before the Lord so that we maintain the spiritual vitality needed to lead others well. We will explore life/work balance and boundaries; working with our brothers, being aware of self-limiting perceptions, maintaining healthy personal vision, conflict management, and other internal permission issues that can impact our leadership as women in particular. We will also address God’s design for our best contribution through personal Strengths-Finders discovery and coaching on-site during the week.  This peer-mentoring community is guided by experienced women mentors and limited to a cohort of 10 participants, so we leave with important friendships for the ongoing journey! Part 1 is recommended but not required.  (Advance reading for discussion: Seven Deadly Sins of Women in Leadership, by Kate Coleman, and Sacred Rhythms, by Ruth Haley Barton)

Learning is done in an interactive peer-group, guided by experienced mentors, with a maximum of 10 women (max 2 per organization.) First come, first serve!

Course Schedule:

Begin Wednesday evening, March 26, with registration and dinner at 5pm, then introductory session following. End Tuesday evening, April 1, at 7pm (registration includes your room for this night, assuming April 2 departures.) (9:00 am – 6:00 pm daily (including worship, personal reflection time, group instruction and interaction, plus several breaks and a long lunch with evenings free.)

We will enjoy an extended worship time together on the first morning to ease into our week, and a Free Afternoon half way through the week to enjoy the area and have some fun/relaxation. Beautiful downtown Coeur d’Alene, Idaho is 10 minutes away with shops, restaurants, art galleries, the CdA Resort, hiking by the lake!

Cost for the Week:  $ 900 all-inclusive, on-site     

We will be hosted by the Ross Point Camp and Conference Center in Post Falls, ID, situated in a beautiful location on the Spokane River. This all-inclusive price includes lovely accommodation with a bathroom in each room (based on double occupancy) and use of all facilities, with 3 meals/day plus coffee breaks, for the duration of your stay, March 26-April 2, except dinner on the afternoon off.   It also includes training instruction, all meeting rooms, and administration (materials ordered separately).
