The Love Group: Rise
WHAT IF FOUR DAYS COULD CHANGE THE WAY YOU WALK BACK INTO YOUR LIFE?
Not because you escaped your life for a weekend.
Because you changed.
You arrive carrying the noise.
The questions.
The stress.
The things you haven't been able to let go of.

The parts of yourself you've been second-guessing.

Maybe even that feeling that there has to be more than this.
And four days later...
You leave lighter.
Clearer.
More connected to yourself.
More confident in what you feel and what you know.
More willing to release what's no longer working.
And surrounded by people who somehow don't feel like strangers anymore.
That's RISE.
Release what was. Rise into what's next.
For 28 years, The Love Group Reunion has been bringing people together for an experience that's difficult to explain until you've actually been in the room.
It began with a woman affectionately known as Mama Ellie.
For more than two decades, Mama Ellie created a space for her students to gather, learn, heal, explore their spirituality, develop their gifts and—maybe most importantly—feel like they belonged somewhere.
People came back year after year.
They brought friends.
Those friends brought friends.
And an entire community grew almost entirely through word of mouth.
There weren't big advertising campaigns.
People came because someone they trusted looked at them and essentially said:
"You need to experience this."
After Mama Ellie passed away, her son Brad Fristensky made the decision to continue what she started.
Not by trying to recreate his mother.
But by carrying her legacy forward while allowing The Love Group to continue growing and becoming what it's meant to be today.
And this October, we gather for our 28th Annual Love Group Reunion.
Our theme this year is:
RISE
✨ Gong experiences and sound vibration✨ Mediumship and spiritual development✨ Trans channeling✨ Mindset work
✨ Connection and community

✨ Healing spirit conversations✨ Personal healing and reflection✨ Powerful teachers and facilitators✨ Laughter, conversations and experiences you won't find in your everyday lifeBut here's what we really want you to understand:
Those are the experiences.
They're not the reason you come.
You come for what those experiences can open up inside of you.
Maybe you finally recognize how much you've been carrying.
Maybe you stop questioning every intuitive feeling you have.
Maybe something you've been holding onto finally feels ready to be released.
Maybe you remember a part of yourself you've neglected.
Maybe you have a conversation that changes the way you see your life.
Maybe you find the clarity you've been asking for.
Or maybe you simply experience what it feels like to be surrounded by people who are willing to talk about the things you've always felt but didn't know where you could say out loud.
You don't need to be a medium.
You don't need years of spiritual experience.
You don't need to have everything figured out.
You just need to be willing to show up.
Because the goal isn't for you to have an incredible four days and then go home to the exact same life.
We want you to take the experience home with you.
To respond differently.
Trust yourself differently.
Make decisions differently.
Connect differently.
Let go differently.
And show up for your own life differently.
YOU ARRIVE CARRYING IT.
YOU LEAVE LIGHTER.
Four days. One powerful reset
Four days designed to help you step outside the noise of everyday life long enough to hear yourself again
