ABIDE RETREAT:
October 24-26, 2025

Foster + adoptive + kinship moms are invited to join us for a weekend getaway at Williamsburg Christian Retreat Center in Toano, VA!

Why Abide?

Moms, the work you are doing is hard, constant, and sometimes lonely. This weekend is designed to encourage and refresh you alongside the company of other foster, adoptive, and kinship moms. We desire for you to come expectant and to leave filled. 

Attending Abide was just what my soul needed. It was a wonderful weekend connecting with other moms and reminding me of my purpose and calling to become an adoptive mama. I'm looking forward to next year!
