The "For Such a Time as This Christian Womens Retreat" is a time of worship, learning about who we are in Christ, and what our role is in the world in which we live. We will discuss how we can biblically fight for our families, and know we are not alone: there are an incredible number of women in the Bible who fought for themselves, their husbands, children, and their country. This retreat is a time away from the busyness and grind of life, to get back into the Bible, have fellowship with other Christ-believing women, and walk away rejuvenated in Christ and armed for the spiritual battle we face. The sessions will support these themes biblically and with practical application--and a lot of prayer.
SPEAKERS are Heidi St. John, Terrie McKee, Julie Holmquist, Stephanie Vroege, and Julie Denham. Worship is led by Annamarie Smith.
