This year's facilitator is Rev. Jenny Smith, author, speaker, and past Pastor of Edmonds United Methodist Church.Gently Fierce, How To Stay Human
Gently Fierce is a retreat for women who want to stay soft without disappearing—and strong without hardening. This is not a retreat about fixing the world. It’s about staying awake, loving, and alive within it.
The weekend will offer restful rhythms to help participants reconnect, beginning with softening and honest reflection, then grounding through spiritual practices and community. Attendees will explore courage as compassionate openness and loving boundaries. Sunday includes worship and communion, emphasizing that gentle strength is a gift. The retreat balances activities, conversation, reflection, and poetry, creating space to recharge while acknowledging real-world challenges.
