Request a Presenter

Group’s women’s ministry retreat kits make it super easy for you to plan and host a retreat yourself. The best part is—you don’t need to be a trained presenter. However, we understand that you still may want the option to have a trained presenter to facilitate your Sweet Life Café retreat. That’s why we’re pleased to provide four top-notch Group approved presenters to come in and lead your retreat.

For more information about what our presenters will do for you, please call or e-mail Shannon Velasquez: svelasquez@group.com  800.447.1070 X4356.

If you’re ready to select a presenter and get started, just follow these three easy steps:

  1. Read through our presenter biographies, and choose the best fit for your church
  2. E-mail Shannon Velasquez: svelasquez@group.com to schedule the presenter of your choice and arrange presenter payment
  3. You sit back, relax and enjoy your retreat!
