As featured in the Netflix series 'Surviving Death,' this is a very special all-inclusive weekend of like-minded people and experienced facilitators coming together to SHARE, LEARN, EXPLORE, AND DISCOVER. This retreat is being held in an intimate center within a bucolic setting, and features a combination of small break-out sessions and general presentations, all designed to open minds to the reality that there is life beyond physical death. This retreat has limited attendance and small break-out sessions will further enhance the overall experience.

FEATURE FACILITATOR: Mo Therese Hannah, PhD
Dr. Mo Therese Hannah, Professor of Psychology at Siena College, joins us to discuss grief, the afterlife, and life after loss. She does this from the perspective of both a professional clinical psychologist and a bereaved parent. She will be discussing the difficulties faced by those who have lost loved ones in addition to suggested strategies for coping with grief. Many find hope after encountering evidence that our loved ones do indeed survive physical death, something that Dr. Hannah both recognizes and encourages.

Joe Perreta- Forever Family Foundation Certified Medium
Joe Perreta's goal is to leave his clients spiritually, mentally, and emotionally healthier than before meeting with him. As a teen, he started having prophetic dreams and visions, but did not embrace his mediumship and went on to college, graduating with a degree in music. With the help of mentors, he later received the validation he needed to continue on his life path. Since then, Joe has been working tirelessly to bring spirit closer to everyone here in the physical world. Word spread about his abilities, and he now has a successful mediumship practice in New York. He communicates evidential messages from discarnate entities, as he believes this is the key in proving to his clients that their loved ones still exist.
Gina Simone- Forever Family Foundation Certified Medium
Gina Simone has felt the presence of spirit since the age of eleven and has been practicing mediumship for the last 15 years. As is often the case, she at first dismissed her abilities due to fear and the inability to process what was happening. However, after significant study and mentorship, she embraced her abilities and blossomed into the evidential medium she is today. In addition to connecting to spirit for messages, she also teaches her clients how to connect on their own with their loved ones. She is the author of “Whispers of Love: Spirit’s Messages from Heartbreak to Hope.”
