What is Dash Away?

Dash Away isn't your typical women's retreat. It's an intimate weekend designed for authentic encounters with Jesus, genuine friendships, and soul-deep restoration. We strip away rigid schedules and conference-style programming to create space for what matters most: meeting Jesus in fresh ways and finding renewal among friends.

Is Dash Away for You?

If you're:

Seeking a deeper, more authentic relationship with Jesus
Ready to experience greater freedom and wholeness
Needing space to hear God's voice clearly
Craving dedicated time for worship and reflection
Wanting to invest in your spiritual and emotional wellbeing
Looking to form meaningful friendships with like-minded women

...then the answer is, "YES!"

REGISTER now for one of our weekends!

I haven’t been this joyful in a long time. This peace that passes all understanding…it’s priceless. You all were used by God so mightily in my life this past weekend…and more to come! :o) I sleep longer and better these days; I never thought I could be this happy!

What To Expect When Coming to Dash Away

Prepare for a laid-back and casually organized weekend. Comfortable attire is encouraged; there's no need for makeup or uncomfortable shoes. Our schedule mirrors that of a retreat, not a conference! On Saturday afternoon, indulge in some well-deserved rest and rejuvenation, immerse yourself in the scenic splendor of our location, or take part in optional activities we have on offer.

What People Are Saying About Dash Away

I was tired, frustrated, angry, worn out, and dry. This weekend completely transformed, refreshed, and encouraged me! Come if convenient. If it’s inconvenient, come anyway!

Dash away weekend was like hitting the reset button for me. It was so restful, which makes it easy to be present in the moment, and I come back into alignment with Jesus. The ladies really created a safe place for you to sit at the feet of Jesus and pour it all out to him, and in return, He radically transforms you internally.

I felt God really speak to me in a new, deeper level. I managed to offload some of the shame I’ve been carrying… God just plain showed up!”

Janice

TEXAS

I came to a Dash Away weekend without knowing what to expect. I had never been to any retreat, so this was all new to me. I spent the weekend with a very diverse group of amazing women with whom, for the first time in my life, I felt no judgment. I was able to be myself with no fear. Wanting to be free of fear, I told God I really wanted to quit smoking, so I didn’t smoke that weekend. I got so much support from everyone that I didn’t even feel the urge. I have now been 2 months free of cigarettes and have no cravings. So thanks to diligent prayers and feelings of acceptance I was delivered.

What's all this about the "Dash?"

Yes, it’s fun to “dash away,” but the deeper meaning of the dash is that it represents the life we live between the day we are born and the day we die. Dash Away Weekends are an opportunity to allow God access to the “dash” of your life to bring you to a place of greater connection with him because… true connection with him changes everything!

Are You Interested in A Taste of Dash Away?

In addition to our weekend events, we also offer half or full-day "Taste of Dash Away" events which can be customized for groups of women only or for groups that include both men and women. The experience is abbreviated for time, but the essence and content of the weekend experience are preserved to the best of our ability within our time constraints. Even though they are shorter than the full weekend, Taste of Dash Away’s are still incredibly profound and life-changing encounters with Jesus. They include:
