There comes a moment in every woman's journey when she must decide whether the breaking will become her identity or her testimony.

ASCEND 2026: Beyond the Break is a prophetic gathering for women ready to move beyond survival and step fully into their purpose. It is for the woman who has done the work of healing, confronted the pain, endured the process, and now senses God calling her higher.

Whether your break came through loss, grief, disappointment, divorce, betrayal, rejection, transition, trauma, or life's unexpected interruptions, this gathering is designed to help you move beyond the place where you were wounded and into the place where you are being called.

This is not a conference about what happened to you. It is about what God is doing through you.

Join Pastor Vioree and special guests on September 18th-20th in Glen Burnie, MD, at Fresh Start Church, for a powerful three days of worship, transformational teaching, authentic conversations, leadership development, and life-changing encounters with God. Where women from across the nation will gather to be equipped, empowered, and activated for their next season.
