"If Minister Sharon had not come into my life, I'm not sure if I would still be here. I have had nothing but negativity in my life since childhood. I was in a lifestyle of "just functioning". At one point, I noticed more negative changes in myself. I was withdrawing, having depressing thoughts, I was exhausted, I felt the need to "escape", the need to be away from people. I was angry and scared. I began attending the VLM Retreats. I noticed Sharon's words and creative activities we heard and did at the retreats seemed like it was all directed toward me and what I was going through. I felt like there was hope and some how, some way, I knew I needed to hang on! I attended more Retreats and began to remove these horrible feelings and negative changes I had been experiencing. I have learned through the VLM Retreats that I am not the only one experiencing such struggles. I have listened to and cried with everyday women that have worse struggles than me! They are all inspirations to me and it makes me go home feeling encouraged and hopeful...not depressed! I know it is going to take time, but I am on the right path God wants me to be on, and with Sharon's help, I will stay there. VLM retreats are not about religion, but are about developing and strengthening yourself and your relationship with God. Sharon has a special way of teaching and guiding people in the right direction. She has a heart bigger than this earth! Minister Sharon Watson and VLM Retreats are necessary for life!"

"The Spirit of God moved mightily on Saturday's Retreat. The power was not orchestrated by human hands, but certainly, you helped conduct His orchestra! Hearts kindled by the God spark in each of us learned to "play" a little better. It was beautiful music to my soul!"

"I really enjoyed the "Worn Out Woman" Workshop. It was Spirit-filled, informative and fun! I met nice people and made friends. I look forward to the next Retreat!"
