This was my first year going to the retreat and I really enjoyed it. I learned to stay in prayer and stay connected because without prayer you can’t stay connected with God. It’s better to struggle with your prayer life then to not pray at all because with prayer you will be able to get a word from God and gain understanding with him.
There was a spirit of freedom. I felt free amongst my sisters as well as those who spoke and lead the circles. I am all the better for attending this retreat and receiving nuggets to apply to my daily life. Thanks Glenda Hyde, visionary, for your obedience to God!
The UYP Retreat was such a blessed time in the Lord!! This was my second year as part of the staff and I’m honored just to be a part of such a mighty move of God, it truly uplifts me. I look forward to seeing even more deliverance breakthroughs and women being empowered.
Each retreat I’ve been to has been refreshing to my mind and body. It brings restoration to your soul and mind. To be able to release pressures of life and feel totally safe among my sisters in Christ. We are restored, renewed and rejuvenated.
I love how everyone showed love with hugs, smiles and just talking to each other. No one was thinking they are better than you; we all were just embracing each other. I felt the Love of God and knew that I am not alone when you share. It’s like the women were having each other’s back, and not judging each other causing you to open up a little to share something about yourself because I don’t open up to just anyone. I loved our Healing Circle! It was laughter, emotional and releasing in our circle. It started Friday night, but I believe everything that was being said and done led up to that healing circle because God knew what we truly needed. My heart was open to receive his presence, not holding back, feeling the pain and emotions of the sisters in that room. I feel that is what a true sister in the church means and we all keep it in that room with God!
This is my third year attending the conference. I love the serenity of the venue and all that nature offers. I have seen my own growth with each retreat. The healing circles offer women safe places to share and community support. At each retreat, I left something behind and made room for more of God! It was amazing! God met me there! The support team is awesome! They represented Pastor Hyde and Unpack Your Purpose well!
We help you release emotional pain and burdens, experience restoration and rejuvenation.
My experience at the UYP event was absolutely liberating! From the fellowship, to the nature, to the emotional release, to being poured into — God moved from beginning to end and truly used this retreat to unlock and restore some things within me. I’m beyond grateful for the experience and am so very excited for the next one!!
In the circle—God met me there. He allowed for me to see why I was going through something I had been dealing with from a child up to last weekend. I’ve released it all and I’m going to allow God to restore me to where I need to be in Him, my husband, my children and everyone else.
The Release, Restore, and Rejuvenate retreat was a blessing to me. It not only helped me release some things but helped me to realize more about myself. It set the tone for me to dig deeper.
This was my first retreat. I did not know what I needed. I had forgotten that the theme was about release. I definitely needed to experience release. I was able to discover roadblocks along my healing journey and see its impact. I received a 911 call from the Lord regarding suppressed emotions and embracing His truths for my life. It is definitely a new beginning, again. Thank you, Pastor Glenda Hyde, for your vision and obedience to your heavenly Father.
Glory to God! The UYP retreat was amazing. The word of God that was released during this time was confirmation. For some time I had been dealing with disappointment and regret for some time but was embarrassed. Prior to the retreat, I had been communicating with God and telling him I was ready to deal with hidden issues if that would free me because I know God has been trying to elevate and use me; but I was in the way and upset about what I went through. I got a breakthrough from each vessel used. The Holy Spirit met me and I am no longer ashamed! My power is in my pain and I must tell my story. My mindset shifted and I am walking into true freedom.
I am happy I attended the retreat. I was provided with strategies, tools and resources to continue my healing journey. I felt free to speak in the inner circles with confidence that my story would help someone else to heal. I was truly blessed beyond what I expected. I love all the ladies, and I pray they all will continue to walk in healing, grace and the anointed favor of God.
