Summit | Scarlet Hope

Flourishing in the Now and the Not Yet

Scarlet Hope Summit 2026 is a two-day gathering created to equip, encourage, and strengthen those serving women in the adult entertainment industry.

This year’s theme, Flourish, invites us to consider what it means to be deeply rooted in Christ so that we can serve from a place of spiritual health, clarity, and abundance. In ministry, it can be easy to carry more than we were meant to carry, to move at a pace that leaves little room for prayer, or to confuse faithfulness with striving. Summit 2026 will create space to pause, learn, worship, process, and be renewed for the work ahead.

Together, we will explore what it means to flourish personally, spiritually, and missionally so that the women we serve may encounter the hope, beauty, and restoration of Jesus.

Date:

Thursday, July 30th through Friday, July 31st

Location:

The Pointe Room 116
1205 E. Washington St.
Louisville, KY 40206

Why Attend?

Summit is designed for anyone passionate about outreach, discipleship, and walking alongside women impacted by exploitation, including Scarlet Hope volunteers, church partners, nonprofit leaders, and individuals serving in similar ministry spaces.

Through teaching, breakout sessions, and guided discussion, attendees will be encouraged, equipped, and challenged to grow in gospel-centered outreach, healthy ministry rhythms, practical care, and long-term sustainability in ministry.

This is an interactive and practical experience designed to help you apply what you learn in real ministry contexts.

What We’ll Explore

Using the framework of flourishing, sessions will focus on these themes

Communion with God

Flourishing begins with abiding in Christ. We will look at how our personal communion with God shapes our ability to serve women with humility, wisdom, and dependence on the Holy Spirit.

Beauty and Creativity

Many women we serve have lived in survival mode, where beauty, creativity, and imagination have been diminished or stolen. We will consider how God restores beauty and how we can cultivate spaces where women begin to see themselves and their lives through His redemptive lens.

Learning and Discovery

As women encounter Christ, they begin to discover who they are in Him. We will explore how outreach and discipleship can create space for curiosity, growth, and identity formation.

Wholeness

We believe God is restoring what has been broken. This session will explore what it means to walk with women toward healing while remembering that only Jesus can fully restore.

Unity and Diversity

The Kingdom of God is marked by unity across differences. We will reflect on how teams can serve with humility, honor, and unity while recognizing the unique gifts and perspectives each person brings.

Abundance

Jesus came that we may have life abundantly. We will consider what it looks like to believe in God’s provision and restoration, even while serving in places marked by scarcity, trauma, and loss.

What Makes This Summit Different?

Summit 2026 is built around experience-based learning.

Rather than only listening to lectures, participants will engage through teaching, case studies, group processing, reflection, and practical application. Sessions will help attendees wrestle with real ministry tensions, including:

How to care deeply without becoming the savior

How to set healthy boundaries while remaining compassionate

How to hold hope in the middle of brokenness

How to resist passivity and step forward in faith

How to remain spiritually rooted while serving in hard places

Our goal is for every person to leave with renewed clarity, deeper conviction, and practical tools for the work God has called them to do.
