The Invitation

You have spent the year pouring out for everyone else.
This September, come and be filled again.

You carry your home, your work, your ministry, your people — giving and giving until the well runs low. EXCEL 2026 is your set-apart time: a weekend to step away from the noise, encounter God afresh, and be refilled until you overflow. Because you were never meant to pour from empty. You were made to be filled — to pour.

Our Theme, In His Word

Three promises we are standing on

Deuteronomy 28:13
The Lord will make you the head, and not the tail…

Rise into the place of influence and increase that God ordained for you.

Philippians 1:10
…so that you may be able to discern what is best.

Leave with sharpened clarity, wisdom, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Acts 2:17
I will pour out my Spirit on all people…

Expect a fresh outpouring — and the power to carry and release it.

An Atmosphere of Encounter

Come empty.
Leave overflowing.

Where worship rises, the Word goes deep, and the Spirit is poured out — this is what being filled feels like.

Is This For You?

This retreat is for the woman who…

  • has been pouring into everyone else and needs to be refilled
  • is believing God for breakthrough in family, finances or calling
  • longs to go deeper in prayer and the things of the Spirit
  • is ready to step into the “head and not the tail” life
  • simply needs rest, reflection and unhurried time in His presence

If your heart said “yes” to even one — your seat is waiting.

Come ready

“Out of her heart will flow rivers of living water.”

— after John 7:38

Three Days Of

Encounter, empowerment & rest

Every session is designed to refill what life has drawn down — and to send you home overflowing.

Spirit-Led Worship

Lose yourself in His presence as heaven meets earth in sung worship and adoration.

Prophetic Prayer & Intercession

Corporate prayer, altar ministry and prophetic impartation — where breakthroughs are born.

The Word & Impartation

Rich, practical teaching to equip you to excel in life, ministry, family and the marketplace.

Rest & Reflection

Quiet space to breathe, journal and hear God clearly — away from the noise of everyday life.

Sisterhood & Fellowship

Real connection with women who understand — laughter, shared meals and lifelong bonds.

A Fresh Anointing

Come empty, leave full. Come weary, leave commissioned — ready to pour into your generation.

The Rhythm Of The Weekend

Three days, gently unfolding

From the moment you arrive to the moment you’re sent out, every part of the weekend is paced to fill you — not exhaust you.

Friday · Arrive

Settle & breathe out

Check in, find your room, and let the weight of the week fall away. We gather for opening worship and a first encounter that sets the tone for everything to come.

Saturday · Fill up

Worship, Word & encounter

The fullest day — Spirit-led worship, rich teaching, prayer and intercession, and unhurried time to rest, all building to a powerful evening of impartation.

Sunday · Sent out

Commissioned to pour

A morning of devotion and communion, a final word over your life, and a sending — so you carry the overflow home to your family, church and world.

An indicative rhythm — your full programme is shared on arrival.

A Glimpse · 2025 Gathering

This isn’t our first time — and it shows

Press play for a glimpse of last year’s retreat — the worship, the women, and the welcome that’s waiting for you again at EXCEL 2026.

There’s A Place For You

Whether this is your first time or your fifth

Your first retreat?

Maybe you’ve never done anything like this — maybe you’re even coming on your own. Don’t worry about a thing. From the moment you arrive you’ll be welcomed like family: no cliques, no pressure, just open arms and a seat saved for you. Come exactly as you are. You belong here.

Coming back again?

Then you already know. Every year carries a fresh word — and this year it’s EXCEL: Filled to Pour. Whatever this season has drawn out of you, this is where you get refilled. Bring a sister who’s never been before, and watch what God does in both of you.

A Personal Invitation

A note from your host

Beloved sister, I know how much you carry. You pour yourself out for your family, your work, your church — and so often there is little left for you. That is exactly why we set this weekend apart.

Come and let God fill you again. Come and be reminded who you are, and Whose you are. Whether you’ve walked with us for years or you’re hearing of us for the very first time, there is a place at this table with your name on it.

Don’t let this one pass you by. Come ready to be filled — so that you can pour again.
