ABOUT US

A Word from
Shamira & Wilma
S’ELLE Encounter was birthed from a vision of encouraging women to walk boldly in His promises.
It’s a sacred time set apart for women of all ages and every sphere of life, an opportunity to dwell in His glory and peace.
This retreat is not merely an event; it’s an invitation to embrace personal growth and encounter the Holy Spirit. As women, we hold a unique calling in this world, distinct from men yet complementing them. Rather than striving for a better seat at the table, let’s delve into the truths of what God is saying about you as a woman. We look forward to embarking on this empowering journey together. We’re excited to welcome you to Girona and invite you to take your seat at our table.
MEET THE FOUNDERS
We’ve known each other since 2009, but S’ELLE Encounter started in 2023 with an idea.
That idea has grown into a vision that has set our hearts on fire. We believe this retreat is destined for such a time as this.
With deep gratitude to God as our steadfast cornerstone, we embark on this journey together. Our friendships and the essence of S’ELLE Encounter are rooted in Him.
In His presence, He guides us into Him, love, connection, restoration, healing, joyful encounters, and so much more. We can’t wait to share this transformational experience with you. We know that God will meet you powerfully.
