District Women's Retreat
October 23-24, 2020
Our virtual Women's Retreat will be very different from the usual face-to-face retreat. We won't be eating together, hugging each other, or sitting together. But we will be gathering, sharing, socializing, discussing and worshiping together. Most of our usual retreat activities will now be experienced from the comfort of our own homes. This virtual retreat is an expression of our district's commitment to step out in faith to bring God's message of love, compassion, and mercy to you in a new and exciting way. The brochure is attached below.
