Question: Would you be interested in an intensive prayer retreat weekend with me? I have been wanting to do retreats for a long time, but never felt the time was right. Now, I am considering the options and thought that a prayer retreat weekend with a small group - perhaps a limit of 10 - 20 women would be a good place to start.

Please leave a you comments/ thoughts on this below. Thanks for your help!

Maybe, I live in Murfreesboro, and can't drive.

Melissa, a prayer retreat sounds like a great idea. My preference is for a venue where the women would be surrounded by nature. There is something about being in nature, without the noise of traffic and the hustle and bustle of the city that makes prayer and communing with God a little easier.

This sounds really great!

I too would be interested in this especially if it is in Knoxville. I am around 2 hours from there. Like Jade I am wondering what type of accomodations would be available and when it would take place. Thanks for all you do Melissa!!

I will surely pray about a way to come! This is something close to my heart to do in PA. Have a cousin in Ashland KY who may well come with me.

I would love to join you but I don't leave even remotely close. I will be praying for all of you though as you meet and pray.

Oh how funny-I live right in Knoxville near UT :-)

Hi Melissa,
that sound like a wonderful idea would it be in the summer months or later on in the year and did you know what type of accomadations would be available ? Jade

Hi Melissa. In these uncertain times, a prayer retreat would be a terrific resource for building up the household of faith. Unfortunately, travel for me right now is problematic -- would it perhaps be possible to simulcast a virtual prayer retreat for those of us unable to join you person? I'm sure God would be glorified in the process. K

Denise, I would probably do the first one close to where I live in Southeast KY. Or maybe in Lexington, KY or Knoxville, TN.
