Meet the team behind The HAVEN retreat

It is her passion and privilege to lead other women in experiencing the BELOVED; Spirit, Soul & Body.  She leads several ministries in the Franklin, TN area but she loves The Secret Place ministry where she helps bring others into the presence of God through movement and prayer.   She also leads an anointed bible study at a local boutique in downtown Franklin.

Joanna will be leading worship at the Tampa Beloved Retreat. She is an encourager and lover of God’s presence. She is a worship leader whose heart’s desire is to make a dwelling place for God wherever people gather. Leaning on her beloved as she worships prophetically, in spirit and truth, is her great joy. She loves the lifelong journey of leaning into Jesus and learning His unforced rhythms of grace (Matthew 12:28-29 MSG).

Personal Chef Extraordinaire.  Robin will be curating a beautiful culinary experience for us at the Tampa Beloved Retreat.  She earned her experience at the prestigious Johnson & Wales culinary school in Charleston, SC.  

Her spiritual gift is creating and serving both beautiful and delicious food while always humming and smiling, creating an amazing culinary experience that is lavished in God's love.  

N.G. (Gail) Carraway will be  teaching during our devotional times at our Tampa Beloved Retreat.  She is an Author and life long student of the Bible and studies Hebrew in order to comprehend the Hebrew scriptures in the Tanakh (Old Testament). Gail has a desire for the reader to have an encounter with the God of the Bible, not just a knowledge of scripture.  You can find out more about her on her website:  www.ngcarraway.com 

Maricel will be ministering with us at the Tampa Beloved Retreat.  She has been married for 19 years, and has four beautiful children. Her family has also been blessed with the opportunity to foster and adopt through foster care, a journey that has deeply impacted our family and strengthened our faith.

She was born and raised in Cuba and came to the United States at 22 years old. At the age of 23, Jesus radically transformed her life, and since then, her walk with God has been centered on faith, surrender, and a deep love for His presence. She is passionate about the Word of God, worship, prayer, and encouraging women to encounter the love of Jesus in a personal and life-changing way.

She has homeschooled her children since kindergarten and has a heart for serving families, women, and the body of Christ. She also enjoys participating in missions and opportunities that allow her to share God’s love with others.

Above all, her greatest testimony is simple: She loves Jesus because He first loved her. Her desire is to encourage women to grow deeper in their relationship with Him and experience the freedom, healing, and joy found in His presence

Camelia will be hosting our Tampa Beloved Retreat at the River House.  She owns Castillo (which means Castle in Spanish) Homes and takes special care to renovate and create spaces that usher in the peace and presence of God, so that her guests experience special touches of luxury, which elevate their time at her properties.
