She Speaks Hope Retreat for Women Clergy and Leaders

She Speaks Hope is a collaborative effort between three organizations: She Speaks Wellness, a program of Moore 4 Sisters Ministries, Inc., Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, and Aiki Healing. Their shared vision is to promote gratitude, forgiveness, hope, and emotional well-being, as stated in Psalms 23:2-3, “He makes me lie down in green pastures, and leads me beside quiet waters and refreshes my soul.”

The program brings together Black and African American women who are clergy and leaders for a spirit-led, overnight retreat. The goal of the retreat is to develop habits of restoration, hope, gratitude, forgiveness, and to provide essential tools and techniques for participants to reconnect with the Lord and themselves.

The retreat is followed by an 8-week online support program facilitated by Aiki Healing. The support program includes audio tools and monthly meetings to help participants continue their journey towards emotional well-being.
