International Faith & Family Empowerment Summit

( IFFES Retreat 2025 )

Join our four-day getaway, which will empower you to grow, connect, and recharge with faith, authenticity, and impact.

The intersection of faith and family dynamics can be a source of immense strength and unity. Still, it can also present a complex web of challenges, such as Intergenerational Differences, Individual Faith Journeys, Interfaith Relationships, Feelings of Guilt and Shame due to disagreements over faith standards, instilling faith in children, Loss of Family Connection and divorce, family Trauma and its Emotional and Psychological Impact, Women & Family, Evolving Faith and Divergent Beliefs and Values, and more. If you are not thriving, it’s essential to recognize what could lead to more mistakes and losses, confusion and feelings of defeat, and lack of peace and genuine happiness.

The International Faith & Family Empowerment Summit Retreat is a powerful experience designed to elevate your spiritual life and strengthen the bonds of faith and family with open communication, empathy, and understanding of different perspectives. This retreat is a sanctuary for individuals and families committed to deepening their spiritual connection, enhancing their relationships, and living purposefully. Attendees will enjoy an inspiring lineup of keynote speakers, engaging workshops, and meaningful fellowship, all focused on how faith can profoundly shape the values and dynamics of individuals and families. You will be equipped with practical tools and biblical wisdom to confidently navigate life's challenges, opening doors to empowerment, hope, and healing.

The Experience:

Imagine stepping out of your life for four days… and checking into a stunning accommodation Nestled in the stunning Gasselternijveen, Drenthe. The air is crisp, and the atmosphere is alive with possibility. After the best night of sleep, you can relax and enjoy some personal devotional time with Jesus, then head to the breakfast table and grab breakfast with some of the most amazing people you’ve ever met… genuinely kind and welcoming, from around the world, who it already feels like you’ve known for a lifetime. You spend your days in group gatherings and transformative workshop sessions… learning, laughing, letting go of what no longer serves you, and experiencing “ahas” and breakthroughs that will alter the course of your life for years to come.

Between sessions, gorgeous experiences range from tea and coffee breaks with lovely treats to networking opportunities that help you bond even more as a group. And then there’s the food… delicious lunch plus special dinners & deserts with the group and moments to worship and pray together in the evening and end the day with lovely treats, a movie, chatting, or games where you laugh harder than you have in years. As each day passes, you feel more clear and connected to yourself. You begin to see visions and opportunities you weren’t connected to before from our renowned spirit-led speakers. You clear out pressures that were weighing on you when you walked in. By the end of the retreat, you are crystal clear on what’s next for what truly matters to you; Your Faith and Family—and have the confidence and clear plan to get there. You feel a grounded presence of the Holy Spirit deep in your core that is unshakeable.
