How did you get here?


Come share an evening at the beach where we share how we got here! How did you get to sunny FL?

Nokomis Beach

Friday June 14th, 6:00-7:30 pm

 


 


Picture this… As the sun begins its descent over the glistening waters, a group of women gather in a circle on the soft, golden sands of the beach.

The sound of crashing waves provides a soothing backdrop to voices as we share stories, laughter, and wisdom with one another. The salty breeze carries whispers of shared secrets and dreams, weaving a tapestry of trust and understanding
among our kindred spirits. In this space, each woman’s voice is heard, valued, and respected. Here, we find refuge from the demands of daily life, finding solace in the presence of women who offer support, encouragement, and unconditional
acceptance.

Pay that night

Esther Retreat


At some point in our lives, we women can all relate to the story of Esther. She was young and felt inadequate, fearful, unqualified, and unprepared for the road ahead. Even as we age, we still have those thoughts and feelings that
hold us back from being or doing all we were created for.

Join us as we discover that, just like Esther, We are a Masterpiece in the Making!




What to Expect:

Learn or renew that God, the Master, created you to be one of His Masterpieces!

Come to know and understand that YOU are enough!

Added bonus:

Discover your Best Colors

Embrace your Authenticity with Clothes & Accessories

Doors will open on Saturday, March 23, at 9:00 a.m. It will be a day of learning, laughs, and encouragement.

 




 


 



SELAH… To Pause


Women spend most of their lives taking care of everyone else’s needs. At Selah we give you a “Time Out!” It’s a time set aside for you to unplug, relax, recharge and focus on mental, physical and spiritual recharging. From group times,
massages, devotions, alone time to do whatever makes you happy( read a book, go biking, walk the beach etc…). You will come away refreshed and having connected to other women doing the same.


 


 


Girls’ Night In 4 a Cause


Girls Night Out is an organization that has monthly events to benefit a different Non-Profit organization each month. They are a community of like-minded, inspirational, empowering women who come together to encourage and support community
organizations. There was great turn out for Rooted & Connected, with many new connections and funds raised.




 



 



 



Christmas 2023

Christmas 
Adopt a Family


Christmas 2023 Rooted & Connected was thrilled to adopt a single mom family. This Mom with two teenage boys was struggling after loosing most of their belongings from the pipes in the apartment above them breaking and flooding
theirs.

Through the generous donations of donors, we were able to provide gifts for Mom and the boys, groceries and pay one months rent in their new apartment. It was such a blessing for all of us and delivering it all was a joy we won’t soon
forget!

Grandparents Legacy 

Retreat


So fun to be back in our home state for our second Grandparents Legacy retreat!

Grandparenting is a labor of love and has the potential to leave a heart print on our grandkids. Some are blessed to live in the same town with their grandkids and some grandparent from a distance and so we all do it a little differently.

Learning new things from other grandma’s, sharing memories of our own grandparents and the things we have carried forward from them. And then in our closing session of the retreat we discussed the story from Ruth and Naomi and the
unexpected joy of that precious grandchild!

The sweet conversation, the wonderful food, the words shared on video from these ladies grandkids all made for a priceless connection of friendship, and memories we will value for years to come.

Guardian Angels Foster Care Shower


Guardian Angels is a nonprofit organization that provides homes and provisions to families across the area that have taken in children who have been removed from their homes for safety reasons. These kids quite often leave with only
the clothes on their back or a very small bag of personal items. From clothing, toothbrushes, hygiene products and paper and cleaning supplies, we were able to provide over $1,500 of items to assist them.

Adopt a Family Christmas 2024

Tonight, we had the opportunity to celebrate our Fort Myers family. Dawn, a single woman bravely battling cancer, also lost her home in Hurricane Milton. R&C, along with all of you who donated, are incredibly grateful for your support in making this Christmas a little brighter for Dawn and Natalia.

Dawn received gift cards, cozy pj’s, and one of her favorites in life, Blue Moon ice cream! She is from Michigan and tells me it’s the best flavor on earth. She didn’t think she could find it in FL, but Kilwins to the rescue. Dawn just had chemo yesterday so pray that she feels like eating ice cream in the couple of days!

Our God is a God of wonders! We are grateful that you all gave! Together we raised 3,000.00 for Christmas.

P.S. Thru tears Dawn wanted me to thank you all ❤️

🎄🎄Today was a very special day as we delivered $1400 in gifts, gift cards and non perishable grocery and hygiene items to Natalia and her family. Natalia,her son and her brother are our adopted Bradenton family this Christmas.

A Note from her to all who helped make this possible

    “This means a lot to me and my family, more than I can express in words. You all are doing God’s work and I love you for that. Thank you so much!

  🎉🎉🎉Also an update… she is able to get state assistance for tuition and daycare and is re-enrolled in college beginning in January. She desires to work in the medical field and be able to help others while providing financially and building a stable home life for her son.
