I thank our Heavenly Father/Husband for giving me a chance to connect with the RMI group. Giving the 4 Ladies the wisdom, knowledge and guidance to work with me or rather equip me to be a better version of myself in the days to come. I have laid my sorrows at the foot of Jesus and I cried because i felt free to do so within in the space. At the same time I felt a strange, but yet a good feeling within me. An indescribable feeling, more like warmth and calmness that was brought over me. Something i have never experienced before.
I praise God for Jesus Christ who is the best friend anyone can have. I praise God for all the blessings He showers on me, my family and all my fellow Sisters despite our shortcomings. I praise God for His protection, healings, peace and deliverances over all our lives. I praise God for His Goodness Because He Is Good All The Time!
Much Love & Blessings

Evening ladies,
It’s been an amazing weekend and all I can say is Lord you have done it again.
With all the powerful testimonies we received and on to top it all off a bride to be.
I was broken and unloved. The ladies that got in the pool never knew that’s our rebirth to christ .
Two woman who stood out to me was Tougeeda with the words over and over and over . The lovely miss Sunshine 🌞@Faranaaz with the yellow rose in for the 3 days I must say you are a ray of sunshine with your yellow rose.
The bride to be Friday night I could relate to the loveless relationship between sibling’s .It was power the way you fought your way to make that stand and restore your relationship .
The entire weekend was blissful and so intense yet fun.
If the rmi allows me to be one of God’s chosen children to be sent over and over and over this saying had such a heavy meaning to all the pain we as woman endured but we became sisters in christ.
@SISTER Leonore all I can say is the financial testimony given was an eye opener to me, as I like spending money on new clothes.
The testimony made me realise that it’s not worth it to have clothes and still be broke every month trying to come out of debt, but I’m the one making the mess of my finances .
In a year time at the 4th year of the ladies retreat, I also want to have a clear record and no financial stress .
To the ladies called my sisters wow wow wow, so powerful. No words can explain or express what we had /shared the weekend, it’s only because God’s grace /mercy we came out on the other side . Natasha wow wow keep doing what you doing because you will reap what you sow in Jesus’ mighty name .The team of Rmi did an amazing job went over and above. The money we paid wasn’t enough for the food, place /scenary and just the sisterhood we formed.
To my roomies amazing amazing stacey ,keedrey, sister sandra ,charmaine and pastor Melanie my roomies snores and all I will miss you ladies the most.
Thank you once again to the Rmi ladies retreat for everything done and all those behind the scenes this retreat was well planned to the tea . There was nothing we were short of food was enough of everything .The gifts like Rmi biscuit ,the sweet and lastly the goodie bag it’s every day things we need to take care of us .

Praise Report – Wise Women Retreat
This past weekend, I had the privilege of attending the Wise Women Retreat, and I can truly say—it came at just the right time. I didn’t realize how much I needed it until I was there, fully present and open to what God wanted to show me.
The retreat offered a sacred space for soul-searching and reflection. It allowed me to pause and take a deep look at my relationship with God—not just what I receive, but how much I am actively contributing to our relationship. That realization alone was both humbling and eye-opening.
The experience was absolutely mind-blowing. It gave me a much-needed window to stand still, breathe, and take stock of where I am spiritually, emotionally, and mentally. I walked away feeling lighter, clearer, and filled with purpose.
A special thanks to the incredible women who led the sessions. They were truly God-sent. Each one brought her unique personality and wisdom, and yet, every message flowed perfectly into the next. They were fearless in their delivery—bold, authentic, and Spirit-led—and because of that, I was able to dig deep and hear what God was whispering to my heart.
I am deeply grateful for this experience. Thank you to the organizers, the vessels God used, and above all, thank you Lord for showing up and speaking so clearly.

Good morning ladies. I firstly want to thank the phenomenal Cape Town RMI team for their authenticity, testimonies, love, support, humility and kindness that you have shown towards us and the principles you have taught us. The timing of the retreat came at the right time for me, then again God’s timing is always perfect.
Your unbridled knowledge of the principles have been impact full, especially “Kindness Is on Her Tongue” and “Won without a Word”
I am a work in progress and i know it will be challenging not to have the last say, but i’m committed to apply the principles. These principles have been the last puzzle piece I have been searching for and my Heavenly Father used the RMI team as vessels to restore and transform my life forever.
The healing, deliverance and finally, the transformation I experienced have left me in awe. It has been an amazing weekend with women of God and so much inner strength, wow what an experience. I thank you my roomies ( especially Melanie, Staci, Shana, Zeedre and Charmaine) for your love, support, kindness and care. I have learnt so much from all of you.
I give God the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit all the honor, praise and glory for the new knowledge of the principles that I have acquired.
I entered the retreat lost and unloved and left as a Loved and Wise Woman. Thank you once again Cpt RMI Team, with much love and appreciation, God Bless, Sandi
To The RMI Team, Spiritual Sponsors, international wise woman, Erin Thiele and Cape Town wise woman
I want to express my deepest gratitude for the incredible experience at the _A Wise Woman retreat._ Thank you for pouring your hearts, wisdom, and love into every moment we shared. Each session was a gift filled with truth, healing, and empowerment.
To each and every person who made this retreat possible, thank you. Your dedication to creating a safe, nurturing space allowed me to reflect, grow, and reconnect with the woman God has called me to be.
The principles that were taught resonated deeply within me. They were more than lessons they were seeds of transformation. I carry them now not only in my heart but in my actions. I will lead by example for my heavenly husband, family, for myself, and for the future generations to come.
Your unseen hands and selfless giving made the A Wise Woman retreat so powerful.
RMI Team Your support and sacrifice created an atmosphere where women could heal, grow, and reconnect with God’s purpose for their lives. Your faithfulness has helped plant seeds that will blossom in families, homes, and communities around the world.
Please know that your efforts were not unnoticed. I am deeply grateful for the role you played in making this experience not just memorable, but a life-changing one.
“I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy.”
Philippians 1:3-4
May you be blessed knowing that your kindness, your presence, and your heart have made a lasting impact. You are deeply appreciated, and I pray that joy and favor overflow in your life as you have poured into others.

THE AWAKENING
This has been my first ever Woman’s retreat. I have always shied away from attending Women
Conferences and Women’s Day events.
Choosing to give my life to God at the youthful age of 16 years, I served in different ministries,
and it had its challenges. No doubt, God was faithful. Over the years in my marriage then,
parenting and as a career woman life happened.
At a very late adult stage in my life I encountered why I had a broken relationship with my father.
He rejected me at birth. After 15 years of marriage, I became a single parent. I constantly had
to surrender to God. Life became busy with routines, upholding my household, forging on to
fight in the workplace to hold my own space and protect my children and myself from many
onslaughts by the enemy.
The retreat was a time of solitude and serene quietness. It was overwhelming to obey, be
humble and surrender unto God my thoughts and listen to God’s voice through the
presentations. The setting of the venue provided a sacred space for me. Just what I needed. It
was soothing and healing to my soul. Soaking in the worship and fellowship was calming for my
inner turmoil.
THE AWAKENING!
1.I am in Awe of the presentations, the authenticity of the presenters and their quiet demeanor.
2. I was deeply curious about 1 Peter 3:4… seeking how do I change me.
3. Each PRINCIPLE took me to a place of deep INTROSPECTION and REFLECTION as a “Godly
woman.”
4. Examining myself before acting or responding and applying the principles will undoubtedly
be a challenge.
5.I conclude that I need God, MY FIRST LOVE. That He needs to take preference in all areas of
my life to experience the abundance of His blessings.
6. Meditating on His word, being obedient to His word and applying it to refill my emptiness.
My gratitude to the RMI team, Cape Town for unselfishly sharing, spoiling us, treating us
with love and for organizing the retreat. May God bless your family, the work of your hands
and voices as you minister to others.

Good evening RMI team. I took my time writing this little letter to you guys because I dont think there is words in the dictionary or even letters in the alphabet that can describe this past weekends experience.
The amount of love and welcoming spirits is beyond imaginable. The peace and joy I have experienced is beyond what this world has to offer.
I saw bold and mighty women all in one presence. I felt safe and comfortable and for that I am truly grateful.
I am very excited to implement the teachings we had in my daily life at home and at work. I feel renewed and re energized for what ever comes in the way of myself and my family.
Thanks so much for the treats such as the food and snacks.
Really thank you so much 🙏🏼🥰🩷

Thanks so much more will be posted
God Bless

Reflection on the RMI Cape Town Retreat (Facilitator’s Note)
As a facilitator at the RMI Cape Town Retreat, I am truly pleased with the outcome and impact of the gathering. While I was teaching the principles, I found that the Lord was also speaking directly to me. It was a powerful reminder that even as we lead and guide others, we are also continually being shaped and refined by God’s Word.
One key takeaway for me was the importance of reflecting on the principles not just during the retreat, but consistently throughout the year—ideally, every day. Temptation is a daily reality, but so is the grace of God. We are called to resist the devil, yet even if we fall, God remains faithful to forgive.
One of my favorite scriptures continues to anchor me in this truth:
“Though a righteous man falls seven times, he will rise again.” – Proverbs 24:16
This verse reminds us that even righteous people experience setbacks. What sets them apart is not perfection, but their perseverance—the decision to rise again, anchored in God’s grace and strength. The wicked stumble and stay down, but the righteous get up, again and again.
This retreat reignited a personal commitment to walk in grace, extend mercy, and keep rising.
Micah
Matthew 9:38 NLT
[38] So pray to the Lord who is in charge of the harvest, asking him to send more workers into his fields.
https://bible.com/bible/127/mat.9.38.NLT
What beautiful testimonies! May the Lord continue working in the lives of each Bride who met and continue blessing the RMI team!
