Well the surprise is out… this sweet friend is coming back to Italy with me!

Yes, Becky Strahle is teaching with me again! And that’s one of the reasons why next years retreat on Lake Como is going to be SO great!

If you couldn’t see how much fun we were having this past June, then let me tell you… Last June’s retreat was a complete BLAST!! (I’ve shared a REEL on IG of some of the fun we all had…)

But, not only was it fun, it was also deep & hard, and so full of the faithfulness of God. It was evident in so. many. things. We were so like-minded in what the Lord was doing there, and we thought why not do it again! So having Becky back is so special to me… and it’s going to be special for each lady who joins us!

In fact… Next June Becky (and her family) will be joining us in Bellagio AND… we’ve decided to open it up for spouses to join!

Yes! It’s going to be a BIG awesome retreat because husbands are welcome to come too!! This isn’t a marriage retreat, so it’s not just for couples… but I wanted to open it up to women who really want their husbands to come along.

Every year I get asked by several women if they can bring their husbands. I explain in the FAQ section that sometimes it’s not condusive to having spouses b/c we share a big farmhouse together or it’s a more intimate setting for just women. But next year I wanted to have one retreat where you can bring along your husband if you’d like. I’ll share more details about that soon on the Registration page, but know that that is an option if you’d like.

And lastly… Another reason this retreat is going to be BIG is because I’ve decided to add the option of staying longer!

Almost every woman who joins us does NOT want to leave… So I’ve added the option of staying longer and seeing more things! We’ll go to Milan for an antique market, experience some neat things going on at that time, and just have more time together. How fun is that?

This will be an option for those interested, so if you want to do just the normal 7 night retreat, that is completely fine. Either way you’ll sign up on the Registration page HERE and pay the non-refundable deposit for the retreat. Then I’ll send you an email with a welcome email and payment plan, and you can let me know at that time if you want to bring your husband and if you want to do the add-on portion of the retreat.

Ok, I’m going to share who’s joining me in England on a separate blog post.

BUT… don’t forget we have a HUGE GIVEAWAY going on right now on Instagram! So make sure you check that out b/c I’m giving away to 1 lucky winner… 1/2 off this retreat next June!! That’s exciting, right?! We’ve never done that before and we are so excited about this opportunity for one lucky/blessed winner! You can find me HERE.

Check out my other blog posts on all the fun stuff happening right now too. And, we’d love to hear any feedback on our new website, so feel free to comment on the blogposts or leave a message for me on the contact page!

Have a great day and hugs to all,
