Durbanville Ladies Retreat


My name is Robyn and I am a part of Durbanville Family Church, Cape Town.

Our Mentoring ladies and friends recently went on a ladies retreat in Citrusdal for the weekend. Wow! The weekend was completely life changing!!
The theme was purification through the love of God, how God prunes us and grows us to produce beautiful fruit that can blossom and flourish for His Glory.



When we arrived each of us received a charm bracelet. Each lady wore this over the weekend and God ministered so much through it. One of the charms was a crown that said “princess” on it, and as we worshipped with our hands raised in surrender, all you could see was this beautiful crown on every ladies arm. He showered His love on His daughters and we truly felt like His special princesses. 
Jesus came and placed a crown of royalty on each of our heads.

On our last night we were lead into worship and man did God rock up! I fell onto my knees in total surrender to God, when I looked around me every single lady was on her knees. The moment brought me to tears, God was so powerful and so good to us, you could not help but fall in awe in front of him. God came and met every expectation we had. Ladies who were held back by strong holds were set free and a new joy and beauty entered their hearts.

So many new friendships were formed and we received a new love for our sisters. 
No one left the same. We were all changed with a new song in our hearts. What happened in Citrusdal definitely didn’t stay there…
