Released is a women’s freedom weekend hosted at Lakeview Encampment and Retreat Center in Waxahachie, TX, and is now available for an Online Experience.  You will be blessed as we pursue the Lord in worship and the Word, while learning key truths that will help you grow in relationship and intimacy with Jesus.  Let hope rise and dare to believe that God wants to empower you to live the purpose and destiny He planned for you long ago to influence the people closest to you and a lost and broken world.  At Released you will have an opportunity to escape from daily routine and carve out time to be encouraged by a group of women who understand your heart.  Join us in person or online and allow God to make an eternal impact for His Kingdom in your life! Invite friends, sisters, co-workers, & life group and make time this spring to be RELEASED!
