In our unguarded and private moments, our longings for more rise to the surface. We want more life. More hope. More love. More healing. We know we are made for more. But what we don’t need more of is information. We do not need more knowledge about Jesus; we need an encounter with him. That is what the Captivating Retreat is all about.
Jesus calls us, saying, “Come away with me, my beloved.” (Song of Songs 2:10)
You are invited to come away and join us in the beauty of Wales for a spacious time to go on a treasure hunt for the true heart of God and the unique, beautiful feminine heart he has placed in you. Through teaching sessions, film clips, music, guided periods of reflection, and downtime immersed in beauty, we're inviting you to take the risk of coming alive as a woman—God's captivating woman.
Join us for our four-day event as we journey together into the deep mysteries of our feminine souls in order to recapture our hearts.
Because more is available.
Registration is now open and will remain open until the event fills.
Economy room is defined as one woman in each bed, meaning every top bunk and every bottom bunk filled (16 women per room).

Tuition for this event covers all costs for accommodations, meals, teaching, and event supplies. Tuition does not include transportation to and from the event. (Linens are included with Standard and Ensuite Accommodation, consisting of a pillow, sheet set, a light blanket, and a towel. We encourage you to bring additional bedding if a specific pillow and blanket would make your stay more comfortable.)
IMPORTANT: Roommate requests can only be honored for standard registrants requesting other standard registrants and ensuite registrants requesting other ensuite registrants. We cannot room you together if you are not in the same type of room. We also cannot guarantee that your group will have a room to yourself. To accommodate all attendees, we may house you with other women not in your group.
If finances are the only thing preventing you from registering, please email [email protected].
Attendees are responsible for their own transportation. However, we will be offering a shuttle service from the Newtown Train Station to Cefn Lea.
We offer a shuttle service to and from Denver International Airport for an additional charge of $99 (round trip). If you are selected in the lottery, you will have the option to purchase a shuttle ticket. Additional shuttle details will be provided at that time.
We will not have any COVID-related restrictions (masks, distancing, limited attendance, etc.) in place for this event. If you are concerned about this, we encourage you to consider coming sometime in the future when you would be comfortable.
Due to the nature and depth of the content and experience, Captivating is not designed for youth. You must be at least 18 years of age to register.
Unfortunately, this retreat is not designed to offer childcare, and it is not able to provide for nursing moms. We do pray that God would supernaturally provide for your children while you are away; and for nursing moms, we pray with all our hearts that Jesus would make a way for you to participate in a future retreat.
If you would like to attend the event and be housed with specific friends or a group, you will be able to indicate this under the group section of your lottery entry. Group/roommate requests can only be honored for standard registrants requesting other standard registrants and economy registrants requesting other economy registrants. We cannot room you together if you are not in the same type of room, so please make note of this when you enter the lottery as part of a group.

Regardless of when you cancel your registration, your registration is not transferable to another event, date, or person.

While it is our intent that Stasi Eldredge will participate in the event, if for any reason she is unable to participate, the event will most likely continue without her.

If we do decide to cancel the event for any reason, we refund your full registration fee to you.
