Meet the Speakers
We have four wonderful women who will be speaking at our 2025 Rejuvenate Retreat. The central focus of our retreat is IDENTITY!
​
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I love by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
Galatians 2:20

Hello! I'm Kelly Gassler. I am on a mission to help women find their true authentic selves and help them come alive! I believe so many dreams and aspirations lay dormant because of past pain and fear. Just like you, I am all the things, wife, mom, sister, business owner, and communicator. Nothing gives me more joy than to see others have their "Aha!" moments, where fear breaks and passions come alive. I could tell you all the things I do, but at the heart of it all, I'm an encourager with a kick. I love people like kids love candy! You can also find me behind a layer of books or trying to figure out the next time I can get my feet in the sand. I can. Not. Wait. To empower you to be your truest authentic self!
I have been a Child of God for most of my life, but as an extremely strong-willed person, it has been a life of learning to yield my will, plans, and dreams to Him and choose to follow His plan for me instead. Following Jesus, I have been a middle school math teacher, stay-at-home mom, Bible study leader/teacher, homeschool mom, missionary, and now bookkeeper.
​I have been married for 14 years. Darren and I have 2 children, Josiah (6th grade) and Tirzah (4th grade). Though I love consistency, our family has lived in 7 homes on 3 continents (home #8 is coming next month!). My life has not looked anything like I expected, but I would not trade this life walking with Jesus for anything.
