1) Annual Fall Retreat

Each autumn, women in the North Central District gather to hear the Word of God, fellowship with one another, and to enjoy both indoor and outdoor activities during one of the most beautiful seasons in the Midwest. It is in this environment that we open ourselves to the deeper life in Christ and position ourselves to experience transformational growth. Tell the women in your life about this retreat, today!

2) Director’s Training Retreat - Spring 2025

At our spring director's retreat, we provide meaningful training and encouragement for each women's ministry leader and her team.

NCD Alliance Women’s Spring Development Conference is a weekend for you and your leadership team of spiritual refreshment, personal development, ministry evaluation, and team building.

You have been gifted by God for ministry. You have been called by Him and your church. Do you feel quipped? Alliance Women has designed an event that offers two days of development and training for you and your team. Join us, with other women from around the district, for this time away designed for female leaders. You will be encouraged through small group time and worship. The lectures are designed to enable you to return to your church full of confidence couple with a vision of how to continue to love and serve your community.

3) Empower

We would love to invite women to step into the Empower Program this fall. The Empower Program is a spiritual development program designed to “equip, inspire, and prepare women for effective ministry”.

The Empower Program is a great way to help women step into more with Christ and experience Him in new ways. The program is great for all women – those in official leadership positions, and those who are longing for something more.

Empower is a 9-month program running September through April with a graduation celebration in May. In addition to coursework, each month has a 2-hour group mentoring time to expand on the monthly topics. Participants can expect to spend about 8-10 hours each week on their coursework during these months. 

Although Empower has gone completely virtual over the last couple of years, we have in-person mentoring group options in our district based in the Staples, MN and Roseville, MN areas. Additional online options are available as well.

• Registration Deadline: watch for more info for fall 2025

• Cost: $1,500
