One hike… many journeys.

Arise is not a women’s conference or retreat. It’s a faith journey in the wilderness where inspiration, adventure and physical challenges forge a deep spiritual experience with God.

Arise is a 2-day, 2-night event that challenges the character of women and builds trust and unity. The weekend starts on a Friday night and ends on the following Sunday afternoon. During the weekend, women turn over their watches, phones and wallets.

Only the items on the packing list provided are allowed.
