Hakinson ND Women's Retreat 2026

It's difficult to be a woman in today's world. Social media constantly tries to tell you everything you aren't, and judges every decision you make. Society belittles women for choosing traditional roles, such as wife and mother, measuring your worth only by what you produce. Tries to convince you that true freedom lies in nothing less than total self-reliance.

What the world needs today are Women of Valor. Women who are not afraid to stand up to these destructive social movements. Women who will stand firm in the face of social pressures, stand fast in virtue, and stand side by side with men to defend the family and the Church. Women whose love can soften the hardest of hearts, whose wisdom can overcome hatred and prejudice.

The Scriptures are filled with such courageous women. From Esther, Judith and Ruth, to Mary Magdalene, to the Blessed Mother. Throughout history, the great saints of the church like St. Catherine of Sienna, St. Therese of Lisieux, and St. Mother Theresa show how women can change the world around them. The Church can never be complete without Women of Valor, for this was God's plan from the beginning.

Learn how to embrace the true beauty of womanhood as God intended it. Live out your vocation in life, unabashed and unafraid. Embrace your true identity as a beloved daughter of God the Father. Show the world the image of womanhood as God intended it. As a Woman of Valor!
