The Italian Dolomites are a sanctuary of stillness and wonder—where dramatic peaks rise into the heavens, glacier-fed lakes shimmer in turquoise hues, and every trail leads to a deeper sense of awe. This retreat is more than just an escape—it's an invitation to strengthen your body, quiet your soul, and serve with purpose, all while immersed in one of Europe’s most breathtaking landscapes.

Our days will be filled with movement and meaning. You’ll hike through alpine valleys and ancient forests, pausing at glacier lakes that reflect the sky. We'll gather for strength and mobility sessions outdoors, breathing in the crisp mountain air as we move with intention and gratitude.

In the kitchen, you’ll learn from real-life Italian nonnas—women who have cooked for generations using recipes passed down through love and tradition. Together, we’ll create and enjoy meals that reflect the heart of northern Italy, paired with local mountain-grown wines that tell their own story.

We’ll venture beyond the mountains for a curated day trip to the magical city of Venice—exploring its winding canals, sacred architecture, and vibrant culture. Closer to home, we’ll dive into the rich history of the region, visiting Orthodox churches and small museums that offer a glimpse into the spiritual and cultural tapestry of the Alps.

And as with all we do, this retreat is rooted in mission. We’ll spend time serving local communities—offering practical help and sharing the love of Jesus in a region that blends tradition, beauty, and quiet need. Through both stillness and service, we’ll experience how faith flourishes when we give it space to move and grow.

This is more than a trip. It’s a pilgrimage of strength, sisterhood, and sacred rest—set in the heart of the Italian mountains.
