Retreats, possibly our greatest opportunity for personal ministry to women, are powerful tools, as they provide opportunities for ladies to come together for relaxation, fellowship, worship, prayer, and education. In addition to continuing to provide spiritual, emotional, physical, mental, and family ministry, retreats also open doors of opportunity for young women to train and develop a progressive female ministry, including leadership. As women experience spiritual and personal growth, they will, spontaneously, become vessels through which the grace of God is enlarged.
A highlight of these retreats is the T.A.P. (Talk and Prayer) groups, wherein the women are divided into small groups. Each group meets individually to discuss each person's needs, read scriptures, and pray for the various needs of the ladies in each group.
