Hello!

We are excited that you are joining us for the Spring 2025 Women’s Retreat! We are praying for a weekend of spirit-filled encouragement and nurturing. We pray that the retreat will allow you to draw closer to the heart of God and to nurture long-lasting relationships with other sisters in Christ.

We have been praying and preparing for several months for this weekend and we believe that the Lord has guided us in planning a wonderful weekend for you.

We ask that you be at Grace Christian Fellowship at 5.30 pm on Thursday, March 13, 2025. Your family may drop you off or you’re welcome to park your vehicle at the church. You will be greeted by retreat team members and they will handle your luggage and direct you to the registration table. We will provide transportation for all guests to and from the camp. Please make every attempt to be on time so we can get everyone registered, luggage loaded, and on our way to camp.

Scripture tells us that Jesus separated Himself from the world and went into the wilderness for 40 days so He could commune with God. We would like to remove as many distractions as possible during this retreat, so we respectfully ask you to leave all electronic devices, including watches and cell phones at home. We fully understand that the thought of completely unplugging for 48 hours may unnerve some of you, but we are challenging you to separate yourself from the outside world just for this weekend.

If you have a family or job issue that may cause concern, please let us know and we will make arrangements for you. Below you will find our cell numbers and a list of contacts that you can leave with your family and/or friends should they need to contact you quickly.

Below you will find the packing list. Keep in mind, this is a very, very casual weekend. This is a retreat for you in every sense of the word; we want you to feel comfortable and relaxed. The majority of our activities will be indoor but at times a small amount of walking will be involved so please pack what you will be most comfortable in.

We had some amazing women step up and cover all needed scholarships, so if this is something you requested at sign up, know that it has been covered!

We are expectant in what the Holy Spirit has planned. We promise that you will be blessed beyond measure. If you are feeling hesitant and wondering what in the world you have signed up for, we ask that you just boldly step out in faith, trusting you are in for a beautiful encounter with the Lord.

We can’t wait to see you! Please reach out with any questions you may have.
