Sister Camp was created to hold space for 16 women to come and gather for a time of respite in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas. Some time to BREATHE deep….. to take that beautiful sacred pause. It’s about providing a safe place for community and showing up for each other. It’s about finding some PEACE and equipping for the journey. It was created so you could feel LOVED.
God has undeniably, assembled a team of gifted Handmaidens just for YOU, to prepare the atmosphere for a sweet, sweet time....This is YOUR time. Whether you are whole or broken, no matter where you are on your path, you are WORTHY of this experience.

A few of our sisters had this to say....
"Attending Sister
Camp was a life changing few days that will forever be
with me. The faith inspired, love
inspired retreat created a sisterhood where we met as strangers and left
powerfully connected. It was a place to
laugh, heal, share, create pray and bond; in a gorgeous natural setting … all
of it so breathtaking. Beauty everywhere, inside and out…..For me, it was also a real start to begin to
live a peaceful life…one inspired by internal beauty and simplicity created by
the total acceptance of other sisters…..I am happy to say those bonds have brought me great joy and are
sustained since camp." ~ Donna, Michigan

"Sister Camp was a heartwarming, life changing weekend. I came not knowing what to expect and left with an amazing group of Soul Sisters in my heart!" ~ Trina, Texas
"Sister Camp is about getting away from the hustle and retreating to a peaceful, all-inclusive mountain setting with girlfriends for a few days. It's deep breaths. It's heartfelt hugs. It's pampering. It's homemade, gourmet, organic food. It's candlelight. It's an acoustic lullaby. It's unhurried conversation. It's a scrumptious breakfast on the back deck. It's an easy, refreshing hike in a national forest. It's a picnic lunch on the river bank. It's singing & roasting s'mores by a campfire. It's cozy quilts. It's a chance to make art in D'Wana's fun little cabin studio. It's encouraging, soul-stirring sessions led by creatives and life coaches. It's what you always wanted summer camp to be. It's the space and time for a nap or two. It's the best kind of surprises. It's a place for healers to be healed, nurturers to be nurtured. It's about filling up your vessel so you can pour out fresh love & creativity over the heads of those you influence. Sister Camp is all this and more." ~ Vicki, Texas *for more love visit:

"D'Wana and her staff created a beautiful respite where campers were constantly pampered and loved. The food was beyond delicious - it was a feast for the eyes as well. The schedule was planned perfectly and allowed for plenty of rest and relaxation." ~ Dawn, Maryland
"Sister Camp was the most important gift I’ve given myself in years. D'Wana has created such a special sacred place to just BE, where I felt loved and cared for and cherished. Three days filled with important soul care in a beautiful location with amazing meals so lovingly presented. Time for self-reflection, time for prayer, time to nurture new friendships, time to learn new things, time for healing. I left a piece of my heart there and I must return." ~ Dianne, Nevada
