Because I Showed Up

Secure My Seat

October 16-18, 2026 | Norcross, Georgia | Luke 8:43-48

A weekend for the woman who knows God is calling her into more.
Healing. Worship. Sisterhood. Becoming.

CHELE' J.

Welcome to The Encounter.

Sis, this room was built with you in mind.

The Encounter is a sacred gathering for women ready to grow, heal, and experience God in a fresh way.

We are not coming to perform. We are coming to be poured into, strengthened, restored, and reminded of who God called us to be.

This is sisterhood, breakthrough, and becoming.

It’s your time to show up.

THE STORY BEHIND THE ENCOUNTER

Before there was The Encounter, there was a becoming.

Becoming Her: On This Side of Glory is more than the story behind the woman building this room. It is a testimony of heartbreak, surrender, rebuilding, and choosing to show up when shame said to stay hidden.

The same obedience that led Chele’ J. to share her story also gave birth to The Encounter, a space where women can release what they have carried, meet God again, and become who He has called them to be.

This book carries the heart of the weekend:

Show up. Heal. Become.

Read The Book

This is the room for the woman who almost stayed home.


The woman who has been carrying it quietly.
The woman who still believes God has more for her.
The woman who is ready to show up and leave different.
