Comments from Past Participants
“I would do this twice a year if offered!”
“It was the most thoughtful retreat I have ever been on.”
“There were thoughtfully incorporated elements (such as sensory experiences, processing, worship) and an open schedule to invite rest and reflection, rather than rushing form teaching to teaching. I felt like I really soaked in the word and fellowship. I felt spiritually rested coming home.”
“To make every effort to attend because of the teaching, the schedule, the hospitality, the restfulness, the encouragement and the small number of women.”
