Our story

Your past does not define you. Christ does.

Crowned in Grace is a Christ-centered women's ministry and community created to help women grow deeper in their relationship with Jesus, discover their identity in Christ, experience biblical inner healing, and walk in greater freedom, wholeness and purpose.

We create intentional spaces where women can step away from the noise of everyday life and encounter God, through retreats, Bible studies, mentorship, prayer, teaching and meaningful community.

Our retreats pair beautiful, peaceful settings with biblical teaching, worship, prayer and ministry from experienced Christian speakers and inner healing ministers. Beyond the weekend, Crowned in Grace continues as an ongoing sisterhood where women are encouraged, discipled and equipped to live from who God says they are.

The experience

What it looks like to come away.

Stories from our women

Held, healed and sent out in freedom.

I came exhausted and left lighter. For the first time in years I had space to be still, to be prayed over, and to hear God speak to me about who I really am.

Ava Whitfield

Women's retreat guest

The study gave me language for things I had carried quietly for years. I finally understand what Scripture says about my identity, not just what my feelings say.

Marisol Rivera

Bible study member

Having a mentor who prays with me, checks on me and points me back to Jesus has changed the way I walk through hard seasons.

Danielle Brooks

Mentorship participant

The prayer ministry was gentle and never rushed. I walked out of that room carrying forgiveness instead of shame.

Priya Nathan

Inner healing ministry

The retreat did not end when we drove home. These women still text me Scripture, still pray for my family, still show up.

Camille Okoye

Community member

I almost did not come because I did not know anyone. By the first evening I felt welcomed, seen and completely at home.

Hannah Delgado

First-time attendee

Everything was beautiful and intentional, from the teaching to the table settings. It felt like being cared for by the Lord through details.
