Do you dream of traveling to Italy and enjoying the beauty and culture of a country whose motto is “La Dolce Vita” - living the sweet life? (And they’re not talking about gelato, although there’s lots of that too…)
Would you like to be refreshed in your faith as you explore the charming villages on the shores of Lake Como?
All of this, as we take the time to be still and know that God is in every detail of our lives… and it is abundantly clear here, in Italy, as we see His beauty and majesty everywhere you look!
Psalm 46 reminds us that God is our refuge and strength, and in the world we live in these days I believe we need to not only be reminded of that, but we need to connect on a deeper level with other women who believe that.
And that is why we come here each year.
We know it’s not easy to leave your busy life and come here with us. We know you have many other options to travel to Italy. But each year we pray the Lord will bring the women He wants to be here… and He does.
And that is the sweetness of Jesus… who loves us, cares about us and wants to show us the hope we can have in Him.
So that… we can go back home renewed and strengthened in our faith, ready to share the hope we have in Jesus with others!
Italy is a place that takes the slow and simple life seriously… and it is seriously life-changing when you experience it.
I’d love to share a part of Italy with you that is home to us. Yes, you’ll see all the beautiful villas, the incredible architecture, the views everywhere you turn, the creative classes and devotional time, and the food… of course the food! But you’ll also step into the lives of the people we love dearly here, and you will love them too. And you’ll be reminded of the faithfulness of God in this place.
So we simply ask you to pray about joining us next year in Italy and see what the Lord has for you here.
Registration for our 2024 Bellagio Retreat is open, and we’d love to help you experience Italy in a truly unique way!
