"The Journey exists to let women know they are valued and they are loved and to invite them into intentional community."
a weekend of sharing stories, creativity and good food

PEACEFUL COUNTRY SETTINGS

Nestled on an acreage in the Edmonton area, the Journey Retreat offers a safe place for women to be pampered, loved and be brought into a community of belonging. We have been hosting these retreat weekends for the last 10 years and have seen lives transformed in so many ways.

Building Bridges

The Journey began as a way for women to share their experience, strength and hope with each other. Our guests are women seeking to build connection through their shared stories of triumph and adversity.

The Journey is led by volunteers who want to share their lives and stories. As we listen and share our stories they become powerful tools of learning. As we are heard by each other we know we are seen and that we are loved. We hope each woman on the Journey weekend leaves knowing the person she is created to be is a person of dignity and value. 

We offer opportunities through structured group times to listen and learn from each other. Many of the volunteers have very different stories than our guests. This helps to build bridges between peoples whose paths might not otherwise cross.

The Journey Weekend Experience - What to Expect

We want women to know they are valued and loved.  Volunteers share their skills and offer hair cuts, massage, manicures, pedicures and make up. The outer changes that happen through spa day is our way of bringing out the inner  beauty of each of our guests.
