An Evening with Ellen

It’s an evening out with your friends. A time to relax and unwind. A time to connect with other women. A time to sing and worship God. A time to soak in some good teaching.

Whatever walk of life you’re in right now, we have something really good for you.

Please join us for this very special night with Ellen Garland, where she will be sharing about +ONE Leadership: Leading Better Together.

Ellen is the keynote speaker at our annual Leadership Retreat from April 21-23, 2023. We would love to have you join us! But we realize that not everyone can get away for the whole weekend, so we’re offering this special event on Saturday night that is open to everyone, even if you’re not attending the retreat.

If you are attending the retreat, then there is no need to register for this one! The special event with Ellen is included in your retreat registration.

Our night together will also include light refreshments, fun activities to help us connect, meaningful worship, and an opportunity to help a good cause:

There are few things as exciting as an event that calls for a + ONE. Your expectations have been set. THIS will be an opportunity (and you can share it with someone!). On the flip side, anxiousness can accompany that also.

So it is with leadership. Your expectations were set, and now you’re living it. Some days you enthusiastically serve. You keep your passion for Jesus boiling hot. Some days you radiate with the glow of the Holy Spirit.

Other days … there are stress fractures, and you’re dragging your exhausted tail to just muster enough love to give that one person a hug.

In both moments, we need to invite a + ONE into our eventful day. Yes, because every day is just that, an event.

It’s a given … we need JESUS. But maybe there’s another (someone with skin on them) whom you should invite to keep your equilibrium, clarity, and fervor. We are not called to be independent, but to be interdependent. Let’s be inspired to see that + ONE who is willing to hold space with us as we lead.

Let’s learn TOGETHER, to see our blind spots, to recognize our need to receive from others, and to identify when we can be that + ONE for someone else, to ripple support and encouragement on another.

We will view dynamic Biblical pairs who found leading was better together.

When: Friday, April 21 at 7:00 PM through Sunday, April 23 at 12:00 PM (Please note that all retreat times are in EST.)

Where: Immanuel Church | 301 Boston Rd. Chelmsford, MA 01824

Who: All women who are actively serving in their churches or organizations; especially those women who minister to other women.

What: Three general sessions with Ellen Garland, six afternoon break-out sessions pertinent to life and ministry; free time to enjoy and meet new women, plus much more!

The retreat will take place at the La Quinta in Andover, MA. This will be a time to connect with sisters who have a heartbeat for Christ; it will be a time of encouragement and enrichment.

Our time together will feature a variety of elements. Here are some highlights:

  • Meaningful and inspirational worship
  • Special guest speaker Ellen Garland will be speaking twice on Saturday and at Sunday’s general session.
  • We will also be having a special evening event with Ellen on Saturday that will be open to all women, even those not attending the retreat!
  • A relaxed time of fun to connect with old and new friends
  • Personal quiet time and prayer 
  • Ministry-relevant breakout sessions

The Blessed Alliance is the vision God unveiled at Creation for all humanity. As he launched the greatest enterprise imaginable, he commissioned his male and female image bearers—together—to join forces as kingdom agents who speak and act on his behalf and to explore, cultivate, and care for his creation. East of Eden, we live in the ruins of a broken world and as members of a divided humanity.

Even in the church, we struggle to get along, much less to work together. Now, inside the church, instead of a breathtaking unity, epidemic levels of abuse have surfaced. We need to recover that Blessed Alliance. Jesus came and died to rebuild it. His dying prayer was for a oneness to form among his followers that will shock the world and prove that “Jesus has come and that his kingdom is not of this world.”

What could be more important than for us to ponder together the beauty and high calling of God’s vision and explore the profound implications it has on our own stories.

The retreat will take place at the La Quinta in Andover, MA, and is for any woman who is currently serving in her church or organization. This will be a time to connect with sisters who have a heartbeat for Christ; it will be a time of encouragement and enrichment.

Our time together will feature a variety of elements. Here are some highlights:

  • Meaningful and inspirational worship
  • Special guest speaker Carolyn Custis James will be speaking twice on Saturday and at Sunday’s general session on “The Blessed Alliance: Men and Women Serving God Together.”
  • We will also be having a special evening event with Carolyn on Saturday that will be open to all women, even those not attending the retreat!
  • A relaxed time of fun to connect with old and new friends
  • Personal quiet time and prayer 
  • Ministry-relevant breakout sessions (you can take 2!)

Cost $79-119, to learn more about the cost and how to register please visit our website .
